Perfect Stranger

2020

you’re once a someone’s perfect stranger

crossing the rooftop with a sledge hammerfiery danger; lover’s beautiful disaster

an angel with the wicked wings of a monster

kissing the fears of me as a sober

you’re playing the role of a gangster who never say ‘never’

in the corner—I started as a dreamer

you’re the timekeeper

i’m the leader, you’re the follower

not until our bones melted

loosing its power

pulverized like a powder

i shaped our curves ’til our jellies crushed

i blushed

you hushed

we rushed

forming the edges again

then we gave up

you let the jellies dropped

i catched it

but it fell

just like how i surrended on a dwelland waving goodbye to the wishing well——you left with no story to tell

as if you never heard the bell

with the echoes of your name

with my hymn

and my screams,

with my chants

and my yell


you’re once a someone’s perfect stranger

wearing the costumes of us


you’re supposed to be my stranger

a stranger that I will always knew…


…don’t you?
