The Hat Man
I went on a stroll.
Same lit up signs stare,
While I wear the same hat,
As the same strangers glare.
Absorbed in my own despair,
Walking beside the same street,
Wishing you’d be there.
Same windows,
Same street lights,
Same hat, that you used to wear.
Now strangers stare.
I’m a monster, they yell.
If only they knew,
What I went through,
All because of you.
