Strangers Know Me Better




I was shaking


clean as hell


close to breaking


you could tell


words I tried making


only failed


till you said the words


I needed unveiled,




"Stars fall from greater heights,


you're still up there, you're still bright."




and all the faces I'd seen on the way


all the places that made me feel insane


crumbled under your confidence


that I was bound for more than this.



"Pity, we never knew each other."


"In a way, I prefer this brief encounter."


"You mean I'm not something you could see enduring?"


"I mean unfamiliarity isn't past curing."
