Strangers

By Phillip Hennessy

You didn't know Love
was this, before
You didn't know how,
to miss me, more

Soul sister and brother,
we kissed one another
Strangers, but true
our dangers are through

The depths of your eyes
show me so many lies
exchanging rewards,
creating surprise

Each gentle explosion
of beautiful smiles
the mental erosion
of previous trials

Releasing emotions
we forgot that we owned
increasing such notions
we've got, and we've known

Trying so hard
to hold back the years
exploring dimensions
so cold, beyond tears
