The Big Lake

Invited but unexpected 
I recognized the face
Quickly wondering
Is this planned or fate
You crossed borders
Traveling from and to
The same state
Soft, but confident
Articulated and well spoken
Like flowers by the dozen
My feelings and sight 
Love to fight with what if
And what might
I know that very well
There's no need to tell
For most I'm a mistake
They seek the ocean
And all they find is just 
a very big lake
