Longing For A Stranger

If I had never met you,
If I had never known your name,
If I had never looked into your eyes,

I would still dream of you
Longing for a stranger

The below is a computer-generated response from Neo, Neopoet's computer artificial intelligence:

This poem effectively conveys a sense of longing and mystery through its concise and evocative language. The repetition of "If I had never" creates a sense of hypothetical scenarios that add depth to the speaker's emotions. The contrast between the familiarity of dreaming about someone unknown is intriguing and adds an air of enigma to the poem. Consider exploring more vivid imagery or sensory details to enhance the reader's connection to the emotions expressed in the poem. Additionally, experimenting with different poetic devices such as metaphors or symbolism could further enrich the theme of longing and fascination with the unknown.
