I may not come from planet far
May not have lived on unnamed star
But still I feel so out of place
While wearing this, my alien face

I speak your language but it seems
You cannot understand my dreams
My words don't pass your tangled mind
We are no longer two of a kind

When did you come to think of me
As an alien in this land of free
Do I need a green card to find
The way to your closing mind

No green card, necessity.
Just open heart, yours unto me..
together, friends on journey's foot
will point out the things each overlooked...

love you, s.o.s.

Like they say, "Women are from Venus, Men are from Mars!" I really enjoyed this one, as I sat here nodding in agreement!  

~Somewhere in my heart I'm always
Dancing with you in the summer rain~

Love the title...makes me wonder how something/someone once known becomes a stranger.

Sharon--loved the way you pointed out the frailty of a relationship, without saying failure. To show this way makes it easy see.  Very well done!

You're absolutely right - Sometimes we just don't recognize ourselves or who we are... Nicely done, PdV

There's always more to learn about ourselves and others! This is very well written Sharon!
