Yesterday

Was it only yesterday?

We had walked and talked;

Trivial things just to forget about what was to come.

We strolled to the sparkling waters of the lake,

Sitting in silence; waiting for the hours to pass.

I felt no regrets.

No tears filled my eyes.

I watched you quietly,

Your obsidian eyes met mine,

They showed no regret.

No tears filled those eyes.

Time slowed down; the hours dragged by,

It was the last time, the last place,

The memory I would never replace.
