Strangers
I could be years away from where you stand,
But how will I know with no chance?
Truth betold, I wish to be in your hold,
Or lie in the sand where I’d hold your hand
Secrets shared between us with little more than a glance,
Instead I lie by myself, wrapped up tight from the cold,
surrounded by glass.
I know there’s no point, no waiting to be done
I know I’ll most likely never see you again
Lost lovers, I make it seem, but we all know you never knew
Oh, how big I make it out, there’s no truth beyond that doubt.
As I hold my head high, my feelings dip low
For we will always be strangers, can’t I ever see?
I blame it on getting older, mentally becoming bolder
Deceiving myself, trickery through convincing lies,
Tangling and twisting, reaping and harvesting those madeup
lives.
I’ll always be alone, you have better chance, since,
I could be years away from where you stand,
And I will never get to hold your hand.
