The Familiar Stranger...

Ever wondered how much time and information or knowledge of some person is sufficient enough for us to promote him/her from a Stranger to the level of an acquaintance and then to the pedestal of a friend? An hour, A day, A week, A month; years may be and even a lifetime in certain cases. But has it ever happened to you that you befriend a complete stranger in a matter of few seconds and feel as if you have known this person over years; this is someone who is capable for you to rely upon, depend on, count on? I mean just a matter of some time and you both are no more strangers, not even plain acquaintance but connect to the level of close friends (the definition and concept of which is certainly subjective).


One moment I feel foreign the next a part of you
Now you are my close buddy then a mystique blue

The more I learn the less I know
The bond so profound continues to grow

Is this your innocence or a pull towards your essence
That makes you oh stranger so pleasing to my sense

Seems as though you were always around
But the noises of my mind dint let me hear your sound

Now that I have found you, shall hold you for ever
Late though, still better than never

Read me more, oh stranger
Help me discover more
Hold my hands and take along
On a journey of ecstasy galore
