Mr. Stranger

Mr. Stranger

A Poem by Devinked7115
"

Last 2014, I was so inspired to start writing songs and I did. However this poem is part of the several drafts without music yet. This is again inspired by real-life drama.

"
I came across a stranger,
He looked at me like we've met before. 
He seemed okay and was polite to ask -
If he could get a coffee with me... And, i did-

I sat beside him, and listened,
Amazed by the stories of his life
Then he said, out of nowhere,
"Like a vessel, I know you are empty,
But like a flower, you'll bloom, you'll see" 

Tears fell from my cheek, 
It felt like he knew me - 
Life found me in the middle of nowhere -
Caught off guard sinking in isolation.

But when I saw you, time stopped -
I knew my life will turn.
I’m not gonna cross this world alone.

i'm gonna be alright,
Life has taught me enough
I'm gonna learn to fly - 
And make my dreams come true.

I'm gonna learn how to love -
Like I never knew hurt.
I'm gonna learn how to live,
Like it’s the first day of my life.

I used to live in the shadows of the past,
But it didn’t get anywhere.
So, i woke up and breathe a new day.

Prayed for a thousand times for a miracle,
A miracle only I can make, on my own - 
I’ve seen death face to face,
Such a striking mystery, 
Can consume your life…. 

I knew this world can be real tough,
No one gets out of here alive -
I have been from death to life,
I will never be deceived .. never.. with the world…. 

Then I met you, time suddenly stopped
I knew you're a sign -
That I’m on my way, to finding myself .

Back on track - 

I know there is a streak of madness, 
Beauty and of truth in you,
It’s gonna be an amazing journey
Thanks for seeing me through.
