I think we have met before | Vibhati Aggarwal

I think we have met before

You smell like the flowers in my hair

And feel like the silk of the scarf I wore

You sound like the wind-chime I played with that day

You look like the sky full of stars I wanted a bit more

I think we have met before

You seem to be the dream I once saw

The presence I felt behind every time I felt low I think you were the shade of the tree on that sunny day

And in the wind that blew in the meadows

I don't recall too well

But I think we have met before

You feel like the warmth of my hoodie

The wave of the ocean on that shore

I am not paranoid but I feel like

I had you beneath me as my favorite pillow I felt you on me in the dress I wore

And yet today when I meet you in person Could touch and pinch to know it is you You seem so distant, so unknown

So different from my image of you

As if you were better off

In my sweet little imaginations alone
