Uncanny resemblances

Uncanny resemblances.
Of places, of scents, of smiles.
Like that in any of the fictional novels,
in a romantic love story,

Possibly, in your poetry.
You must have read about this character elsewhere.
Do you see me?

Uncanny resemblances.
with a stranger at your favorite restaurant,
Or In a tram of secluded hearts,
Or In the names of familiarity,
Or at your favourite place.
Do you feel me?

In the end, I'm just a passer by reference
in your story. And you, in mine.
We're meant to cross the paths.
After all, we are all just stories to be heard.
Aren't we?

What do you think? Good oratory skills you may say, but that's just a tiny part of the whole incident. Well, then, you may say it's the incident itself that made the narration so interesting, you may counter, but then it's a boring incident, no? Perhaps It's the culmination of both the ideas- the tool used for narration (oratory skills/screenplay) and making the banal idea into the most interesting part of the story (tell what is necessary to your friends/editing) The idea of this short film sounds too flat when read on paper. So to make it sound vibrant, we thought, after several discussions on the location that we were going to the making fi
