Less Than Strangers By: Noah Eaton 11/27/01 You and me Are only a heartbeat in-between We used to be close together All that's changed now I wouldn't dream Of changing anything How could we all be Less than strangers? How I wish I can get to know many of you so better For moments you can hear me All that changes I'm no star or angel or miracle to you You just see me as a lonely boy beside a train Do you see me Less than a stranger? If I asked you how you've been Would you speak to me? If I wanted to get to know you Would you turn your back and leave? Couldn't I just have one chance To look into your eyes and see That maybe we could be friends You and me... I try to write But there's no one there to read I try to talk But there's no reason to speak What more can I give? To be part of the group? Can we ever be Something more than strangers? If not, who am I? Who am I? |

Who are we after all...funny, I'm just discovering that "I" am the stranger in my life--lots of self reflection in that thought alone--and don't feel so weird, Noah...I often feel that there is no one stranger than me. grin... but truly, finding out who we are through the mirrors of others is part of what it's all about I think. Hugs to you, with love and light that you share so generously with us all!  |

Noah, I hear you, and you are much more than a stranger to me, if that matters. I think life is a neverending attempt to understand ourselves. You have many beautiful insights already, and know that you will have many more. Luv Sandra |

I will always see you as the singing sparrow who brings romance, fantasy and love to us all. Look into your mirror and see that man who you have become and love him for he is dear to so many of us. **hugs** Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams. |
