Strangers

The world without strangers
would indeed be a strange place
recognize every single face
shake every hand and yes,
pass infinite smiles.

You’ll never reach where you
set out to go, because of
numerous stops in between.
You’ll never get home because
good byes will never cease.

You’ll never say excuse me,
never make new friends.
You’ll always try placing
names and events and you’ll
hardly be in peace.

This is a tribute to all the strangers around me. Thanks for being one.
Inspired by the word "Strangers" on someone's t-shirt.
