Passing Valentine

We bump into one another
And turning to apologize
See something remote we recognize
In one another's eyes
In another life did we clash
In battle who killed who
Or was this just a reminder
Of some future rendezvous
We introduce ourselves
But I'm no good with names
And you're no good with faces
You remind me of someone
I was about to get to know
I look like the brother you never had
We preserve our stranger's gaze
As we embrace and pass
