Known Stranger

Stories of the past were exchanged and plans for the future were made

Words of affection were spoken as nostalgia took hold of the heart

I searched her eyes for the friend I had once known

But I couldn't find her in the eyes that were alight with mirth yet guarded

I couldn't find the person who had carefree laughters or crazy thoughts

And somewhere between careful hugs and thoughtful words I realised

That we had grown up and somehow I had lost her in time
