As Though it Were Yesterday

Eight years have passed and

I still remember the pain in

Your eyes that June afternoon

As though it were yesterday.

 

I wanted to reach out to touch

You — hold you — brush the

Tears from your eyes.

Instead, I sat — motionless —

Silent — fearing your rejection.

 

Every so often, you

Invade my thoughts —

Forcing me to wonder

How different our lives

Might have been if I had.
