A STRANGER
Isn't it strange...
How someone you didn't even know existed,
One day, out of nowhere,
Becomes the person your world quietly starts revolving around?
Someone who used to be a complete stranger...
Whose name, whose face, you never knew,
Suddenly becomes so important?
Their words sound like the lessons meant only for you.
Their favorite songs end up on your playlist.
Their laugh becomes your favorite sound.
Their jokes become the funniest thing in the world.
And then, you find yourself
Trying to remember the tiniest details of every moment with them;
The way they looked at you secretly when you were not looking,
What they wore that day,
The exact words they used,
Including the pauses between sentences.
Because those small things feel like the most precious things.
That's really strange
How a stranger becomes
The part of you that feels home.
Isn't it?
