The Passenger

I didn't know you were there

until you said "hello."

You had been watching me

for I don't know how long.

I hit my head against the lamp,

as by surprise I stood up.

"Don't be afraid," you said,

"it's only me- The door wasn't locked."

The voice I'd heard in the hall

was hard to recognise.

But now we know he's onboard,

wearing our disguise.

If only you and I could trust

each other through this,

then together we could

work out who the enemy is.
