The city never sleeps
going, going, going
all around us, like drones...on and on they go
the crowds are endless
lost in this sea of people i feel nothing
surrounded by souls yet lonely
feeling nothing
having no one
only myself.
You feel it too
among the crowds i pass you by
our eyes meeting for barely a glance
yet faces etched into our memories
reality revealed in a half second.
scarce can it be called contact but...
the sparkle in your eyes evident
are you also alone?
i walk on...
not realizing immediately
unknown to us both
connection lost
the crowd swallows us again
what if?
but if so then why...here, now?
not meant to be
and we're alone in the crowd
together yet so alone.
