Stranger

I

one night—
i got home after
having some drinks
with my friends
i wasn’t drunk,
but surely tired
i had nothing to do
and boredom—
struck too

how…
how in the world?

i clicked
with a complete
stranger—
a stranger
i got to know
better

this stranger
got me feeling
butterflies—
in my tummy
this stranger
made everything
easier

II

how can
that possibly be
what are the odds?
of meeting someone
so pretty,
nice and kind
everything combined

how can a person
i didn’t even meet
can make—
this heartache
for a reason that
i misses her
too much
or the reason
that i couldn’t describe
how much i
love her—
it makes my heart
burst.
