things that are fit for strangers to say


things that are fit for strangers to say
after many a long absences:
I thought of you just today
I remember you used to xx...
I saw our mutual friend such and such
so I heard you're doing zz...

things that aren't fit for strangers to see
the short or long dwindling past
the sentiments, stretched out, couldn't last
down the lane of eternity

i saw something from you today
recalling what we had
I live holding the past
but not sure am stranger enough to say.
