Strangers Now
Aug 27, 2017 · 1 min read

I saw you today, for the first time in years.
You walked right past me, without a word. Without eye contact. Without acknowledgement.
Like we had never spent hours and hours together in your old Ford truck.
Like you hadn’t carefully tutored me, mentored me and encouraged me.
Like I no longer existed in your world.
Like you had no memory of me, no recollection of the kid you took under your wing.
I guess I let you down.
I guess you’re not the hero of my youth anymore.
I guess we’re just strangers now.
