Stranger I Wish I Knew

Stranger, Do you sleep with my face in your eyes?
My existence your taunting, would you stand up for me?
Is my hand at your side and your nose pressed against my neck?
Your covers my lips, caress and breath you warm
Chase me in her but turn and find me gone
Disappointment I know, but there ill be
I listen, yet can't we find a clue?
Would you wait for me, or let us subdue?
Never seen but perfect in glimpses, in what I know you would be
Stranger I wish I knew, do you know me?
