WEIRDO

 

 

There are things you say

To the people you know

That you would not

With a stranger

Ever think about letting go

 

But you

You say them

Too me

Whom you have only seen

As an object on screen

 

That does not make you

Instantly close with me

In fact it makes the distance

That is already between

Much more comforting
