*Yesterday

I saw you yesterday

For the second time in a year

The first time you were with someone else

Yesterday with your friends

My stomach flipped

And my heart jumped

When you walked in

I walked right by you

To make sure you saw me

You said ‘hi’ as I walked past

How I got to my seat without falling

I still don’t know

I realized I still wore your ring

But that you didn’t see

After the movie I was walking out

You came by and got my attention

A little wave and a shy smile

Was all the more you did

I smiled and waved back

Before I had to go

If only we had more time

Could the past rekindle itself?

Or do I live in a fantasy world?

Your eyes were soft yesterday

The dark intensity gone

Did I just imagine that twinkle?
