To Love a Stranger

Is it possible to love someone you don’t know?
to override the awkwardness of telling a stranger
I love you and us both walking away feeling Ok,
Uplifted, empowered because we both showered 
each other with love,respect & acceptance  because
You and I see the value of each other’s presence.

So, the question remains: can you love a stranger?
Is it ok to show love to a stranger? Not the touchy
Feely love I mean the admiration for another being’s
existence.

You see there are many different types of love and 
each type of love requires one to have a different level
of consciousness to comprehend it, reality bend and 
transcends it.

What does it mean to love a stranger? 
Is loving a stranger akin to loving a 
reflection of a stranger within?

Is loving a stranger the same as
loving a metaphorical twin?

Who knows, 

For loving a stranger is only an idea, a concept
one can only dream of but never really put into
practice.

In today’s modern, western culture its uncommon for
one to love a stranger, danger lifestyle changer
wisdom bringer, trauma lingers damage anger.

Is it revolutionary, evolutionary to love a stranger?
maybe or maybe not. Loving a stranger or showing
a stranger love is not the norm. Loving a stranger is not 
something you're taught after you're born. Loving a stranger 
is something that can only take place
when the invisible veil is torn.

For, love is an innate trait that is instilled 
the moment character is formed.
