I knew you not yet i remember, my heart sinks slightly at the sight of your face, your name is another of millions, yet it somehow makes me sad. i wonder if you'd feel the same, if i were you and you were i. the loss of something so great, not rhyme or reason as to why, opened my eyes to the obvious truth, "we're all just a step from you." so why do i mourn the loss of you? i knew you not in name, word, or face. yet i'm compelled to wish that i had, why? i know not and fear i will never. this saddens me deeply. so goodbye dear stranger, i'll think well of you, give you best of praises, and hope your travels easy. someday i might see you, and then i can thank you properly, for my eyes you've openned, and my resolution restored.

 thank you... Stranger.

hpriestess I try my very best not to write explanations of my poems. People can perceive poems very differently. Some people will get it & some people won't but of those who do understand what you mean, there will be a spark of light that goes off when they realize its meaning. Sometimes it will be grossly misunderstood, but its interesting to see what different people think about it if they (1) take the time to be honest about how they feel about your writing (not just write "wow" or "cool") & (2) actually leave you some feedback. So far, I like your work.

Beannacht!

TheDragonwitch Very powerfull and deep in deed. Often I have attended medical scenes saving lives of strangers. Sometimes you wonder what they are like as people. Exceptionally well written!!

Daemion to make this more clear... the dedication is to Sarah Alexandra Zwolinski... i never met this girl, hell she lived in a different country than i... yet still when i learned she died at the age of 16 (eleven days before her 17th birthday) i could do nothing but feel saddened... she was born the same year as i... not only that, but i later learned that her cause of death was overdose, they know not if it was intentional or an accident... she was a beautiful girl, more so than the rest... her friends loved her dearly... she will be missed... and the thing that cought me deeply off guard, i've wasted so much of my life... i've been too different for others, and i've driven several away completely... i KNOW that were it I and not her, i would not have nearly the respect she deserved... and i know this... i understand and accept... just thought this would clear up anyone if they didn't understand this poem...
