A letter to a stranger

Dear Stranger

Getting your letter is a breath of fresh air

I didn’t notice our presence invited your stare

Thank you for your words

They are kind and well measured

What happened between me and Emme was not planned

And we have no grudge and hatred against men

To me, it was as real as love could be

It was as close to heaven as Heaven permit

I can’t say for sure if it’s exactly how you feel

But I would like to think ours reign supreme..…JK ;)

I understand we cause a lot of stir

And society are scrambling to measure

How to approach our situation

And is this ‘thing’ infectious and malignant

Well, I am for one not a scientist

But I’m pretty sure it’s genetic

Cause since the day I know how to love

I’ve been chasing girls non-stop

Ok now I’m sounding like a pervert

Please excuse the bad joke

Really we are just like anybody else

We eat we sleep we yawn and we laugh

Thank you again for writing this

I hope I manage to calm your curiosity

Regards from Emme who licks the stamp

Another bad joke I don’t even have your address

Maybe someday our path will cross

And we’ll meet again at that restaurant

Till then take good care

May life be kind and evermore fair

Regards

Mea and Emme

A letter from a stranger

Dear Miss Anonymous,

I know this must came as a surprise to you since you don’t know me.

I wouldn’t blame you if you ignore this

But I saw you and your friend a couple nights ago at a restaurant in town.

I love that place. Good food and ambiance.

I bet you come often too.

You seem comfortable ordering the food.

Anyway, since I saw you that night, something kept bothering me.

I wanted so much to ask you but I don’t think it’s appropriate.

So here I am hiding cowardly behind this letter.

I hope it isn’t much of a bother.

You guys seem so happy together.

Like more than a friend, closer than sisters.

And from the way she softly caress your fingers.

I’m beginning to think you and her are queers.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not here to judge.

I’m not here to criticize you on how you live your life.

I wanted so much to digest and comprehend.

Do you feel the same as I feel with men?

Some say your kind of love is lust in disguise.

Some even say things that are more ugly than nice.

I read somewhere that love is still love

But understanding your world is like drawing in the dark

So I hope you could help me clarify.

All these questions that’s been messing up my mind.

And please don’t think of me as a threat

Hell, God knows I have my own secret

Thanks for not ignoring this message

I’m sorry if I offended you in any way

Yours truly

Stranger at the next table

noname

Disappear with me into the night

Hide away in my embrace

Never fear what lies ahead

This love is our escape

Leave those vain stare unheeded

Leave your guilt behind

Launch with me my wild steed

This love is our crime

I shall not cower away from fate

I will not bow to the prejudice of some

I may perish fighting for justice

But I’ll die smiling in your arms

To know that truth exists

Obscured from common eyes

And that freedom persist

Beyond the haughty lies
