“As I was walking by the street,<\/p>\n
At night,<\/p>\n
I saw a car zoom past me,<\/p>\n
Not knowing who I was,<\/p>\n
Not knowing why I was there,<\/p>\n
To them, I was just another passing stranger,<\/p>\n
They glanced at,<\/p>\n
Through the corner of their eye,<\/p>\n
While going a 100 mph.,<\/p>\n
I stopped, and thought what could have been,<\/p>\n
If they had stopped their car for some reason,<\/p>\n
Maybe we could have been friends,<\/p>\n
Maybe, we could have been more than that,<\/p>\n
I thought to myself blushing,<\/p>\n
It’s best not to think about it,<\/p>\n
I thought,<\/p>\n
I shrugged,<\/p>\n
And continued walking through the night.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
