STRANGER
Interrupted me, you stranger,
with your camera.
Go on.
There is nothing to see here, you see.
Only me and my memories,
full of ghosts from the past.
I am but yesterday’s news.
Go on.
Tread softly, because
the love still lingers here;
the tears aren’t dry
yet.
Go on.
It is just a moment in time
that our paths cross.
I am but a fleeting memory.
Forget me, because you should.
See that vacuous look in my eyes?
Remembering is too heavy a burden to bear.
