Do I know you? the unknown.

I do not know you, don't know who you are; yet you're in my dreams, in my thoughts, in my memories.

Do you exist? Do you have a name? or should I just call you, the unknown.

Wish I could see you, wish I knew your name; or where I could find you or phone you or write.

Wish I could be in your arms, lay beside you; be your lover, your best friend.

You disappeared one day of May, the unknown, like the wind, never knew where you went.

Just vanished in the haze that cold day of May, without telling me your name.

That day we met, when we played and ran and swam naked in the lake, the best day of my life; was it a dream?

Or was it just you.

I miss you, the unknown, and need you, desire you, want you;

Yet the years have passed on and I wonder.. are you a ghost? did you ever exist?

Or did you, and are still alive.

Your memory haunts me, tortures me, breaks me irrevocably to pieces; yet I am lost without you.

Hope you'd come find me,one day, the unknown, in the place we first met;

That destiny would play us a good hand, would be merciful, and join us again.

So I wait and I wait, and ponder and hope on that rock in that cliff by the lake;

Where we met, and we swam, and we ran, and we played.

I wish you'd remember, the unknown, the promise we made;

Because I do, and will never forget.

So I remain faithful, and I dream, and I hope, and I cry and I pray.

Oh yes, do I pray.

Should that day come, it be the happiest; we'd be together, and love each other.

If it does not, you will always remain as you are now, like a ghost in the wind, a void in my heart, an infinite moment in time;

To me, you will forever be, my unknown.
