I look over at you with a comfortable smile.
My smile fades as I see this stranger before me.
The anger & lip movements from you scare me.
I softly speak your name,
You turn to look my way.
I see your facial expression quickly change to a fake smile.
I let you think I did not notice.

Once again your emotion change into a fit of laughter.
I look over at you with confusion & sadness.
You look up at me wondering what is wrong.
Your laughter fades away quickly.
As you realize there was not anyone in the room beside me.
