There he stands looking at me
i never seen him before
but yet he looks at me familiarly
he has been smiling for the longest time
and my face starts to hurt just by looking at him
his eyes, lips and smile, all odd
i go to speak but then so does he
we both stop
the smile is released and my face relaxes
i step closer
as does he
we stand two feet apart
and moves our fingers as if to poke
his is cold and unusually flat
i exhale hard and notice he fogs
"oh god" i thought.
"it's me"
how could i not see?
