Theme: We crossed paths like strangers, yet everything still lived in me


You looked at me, then looked away

As if we never knew each other.

My body froze, yet I drifted away—

Like breath vanished near another.


The world blurred, but your face stayed in focus

It lingered before me, untouchable, yet near.

I stood in silence in the same place—

On the subway, where I lost you that year.


The train moved on, but I stood still like a stone—

You walked on, untouched by the weight I carried.

And here I am, forever unknown

A part of me I quietly buried.


It wasn't fate, just a thread gone loose,

Your eyes seemed distant, yet they drew me near

I mourn a love turned into mist—

The ghost remains, but never your kiss.
