the first line leads me to believe that he could have felt the person was reincarnated or had very very similiar things. And the lines "we flit by eachother, fluid, and affectionate, chaste and mature" which means very natural and friendly, but also grown up, and not meeting in a sexual tense, because when you meet a stranger you don't immediately tell them "you remind me of someone i used to love" he hopes to see this presence that reminds of someone. This also tells me that the stranger he mat can not only be chaste and mature but also someone who is affectionate and fluid.
Another thing that makes me think he is taking about reincarnation is these lines:
In the lines above I think he's trying to say "I have to wait, and there will be no doubt that he will meet another person that reminds me of someone."
I think in the lines below he uses "he" or "she" because he's talking about being reminded of not just one specific person but many people. He and She is not definite and can be anyone. The spirit and essence from reincarnation isn't just one person, or a forbidden lover. I think this poet is talking to a stranger that reminds him of someone he once knew, and that this can be any stranger, and any person.
So in conclusion I don't think he is talking to a specific person, but can represent anyone and maybe everyone in his life. He is talking to someone most likely a stranger that reminds him so strongly of someone.
