Moonlight Stranger

I sit alone
    and let my thoughts wander.
With the moonlit sky
I wonder, will I just forget?
   the emotions I hide so deep
   the feelings of my blue colored soul.

In my solitude I ask myself
Does someone in the universe
    feel the same?
Or am I merely the one
    with this great despair?

The gloomy night embraces me
No birds nor butterflies sing and dance
I feel alone
   yes, indeed I am,
But not until a stranger came by
His heart is bleeding red,
    his soul is lost as mine.

I wonder if he's the friend that heaven sent
Because why do I get to tell him?
All the emotions I deeply hide.

Who is this stranger that touches my soul?
The heavens must have a reason
A reason for uniting our psyches.

This might just be fleeting,
I never know
But for what it's worth
My heart will never forget.

This piece strikes me as both forlorn and hopeful, and the counterbalance of the two is very involving. Well written, Karen, I hope your stranger will be a good one.
