Stranger (Free verse) by Roisin
The smoky dust cloud
Whips my eyes shut
Just in time.
I do not see you
Across from me
Buying a cheap bunch of carnations.
As I rub my stinging eyes
You pass me inconspicuously,
But drop a book
From your loaded worn bag.
It falls open at
The last page:
The bittersweet end of a
Melancholy romance.
Where two lovers lay dead,
Ruined by love.
