Silently while waking through the streets
Of this noisy and crowded big city.
We meet again, unexpectedly!
Both accompanied by somebody else:
You, across the same street
Holding another man’s hand
And with a half smiled face,
You look at me like saying:
“You see? I have another man! ”
Even though you are still
Dying for me, I suspect! ...
I, slowly, walking along
With another woman
That incredibly resembles you.
Likewise, you with someone
That looks just like me!
Coincidence? Perhaps!
Here we are glancing at one another,
Perhaps both mad and jealous
Missing our hugs and passionate kisses,
Feeling the pain of being apart!
The irony of life again!
