Souls of Strangers

Often, as I lie awake
Silent in the stillness of night
I think of you

And I ponder how
Through the gift of reacquaintance 
Our lives entwined and unravelled
Priorities widened and waned
Worlds synced and separated

My mind revisits 
Every late night, spent close in connection
Every challenge confronted 
Every emotion uncovered
Every depth of feeling shared

And now, here lies a superficial shroud
In darkness and depression
And an emptiness echoes between 
The souls of strangers
