3. (*)

They say
there is always
a first time to everything
and seeing you here again
in this crowded place
is like the first time indeed.

This is like
reading a novel
and then you begin to read
a word with an asterisk
warning you
to be cautious
because words with
*'s
have some meaning
have some history
more than the word itself;

And we are nothing
but eyes and souls
with asterisks
in this crowded place
for unknown to others,
we might have some meaning
we might have some history
more than our eyes and souls
ourselves.
