Strangers

Do you wonder if your choice was right?
Did you try hard to put up a fight?
Was it that easy to just walk away?
And start your life over again.
Would you notice her face in a crowd?
Look around when you hear her sound?
You don’t really know her, she's in your past
But these are questions she needs to ask .
You have a connection which is hard to believe
It runs through bodies, it's called your genes.
Until these answers are put to rest
You remain two strangers within her head.

If you are speaking of my previous "her", she has more than two strangers in her head, there is like a city in there.
I really like this work, my previous statement not withstanding. It brings up a lot of hard questions about the heart and the mechanics of love. So often we are driven by forces we don't understand, and it is hard to have control over something one doesn't understand.

Oh, I see you added that last part since I was here last night.
It's very good, Stacey!

Enjoy your weekend!
