Strange Like Friends

To be a stranger to another's soul
but deep inside you somehow know
All their trouble all their pain
All their fears, dance in rain.
Looks in eyes
the meaning in them
What it means, that side ways grin.
Or the way you bite you lip, i do the same
When I'm stressed not feeling my game.
That little nod that voice so deep
The sound that makes me peaceful sleep. 

Stranger than fiction some might say
I agree, it's more intimate that way.

Sometimes we form a close connection with another individual very quickly, Kristen. Did you read "The Celestine Prophecies"? It explains a lot about how such connections may have been intended to happen. What you describe here has happend to me as well. Insightful poem! Best wishes, Carolyn
