Familiar Strangers

For any stranger who is closer than far.

And do I find, that I would confide in a stranger such as you?

That in each others shoes, we would understand so well.

Familiar strangers?

We sat at our mirrored windows

and for whoever looked through, they saw only us.

In our crowded homes, theres only us.

The familiar strangers, only us.

Those closest to us, are those farthest away,

and in occaision it seems, that those farthest were those closest

whom we couldn't obtain.
