Lonely Strangers
Two lonely strangers
walking side by side
under the sleepy moonlight
surrounded by millions of stars
watching them clearly
leaving behind a world
they once had knownTwo familiar strangers
a deafening silence
between two loversThe one who got away
brings a sad smile
a broken heart
fully empty
dying alive
and living deadThe one who was left behind
makes a serious laugh
about forgotten memories
they once had
pleading to escape
the small crowd
to walk with him
and revisit the pastAlong the road
they tread endlessly
side by side
joined separately
carrying the emotional baggage
as they endure turmoil
of clinging to what was gone"What happened to the two of us?"
there was no answer
only silencemaybe
just maybe,
we can go back
and fix the past
so we never met
and i never knew youbut why?
you're here
and yet we're strangersit's nice to know
that you've moved on
so i'll have to go
and just move onsome questions
are better left unanswered
some people
are better being strangersTwo romantic lovers
separate ways
bidding farewell
as two lonely strangers
who once believed
they'll reach the end
together as one
now they reached the end
of their journeygoodbye, it's nice knowing you
The journey goes on
they were lost
but they found themselves
watching the sunrise
to face a new day
and end the long tiring night
of walking as lonely strangers
