The Stranger
What is a stranger
When they stand
Before your face
Eyes upon eyes
Your feet sharing
The same earth
What is a stranger
When they ask
You for help
Or want to help you
And make a bridge
Between your hearts
What is a stranger
A blow-in, an outsider
One of them?
I tell you it is you
The stranger
Is in your mind
And your heart’s longing
For oneness beckons
That stranger inside
To a place where
There are no strangers
Only friends
