I saw you. I said nothing.
I did not know what to say.
I saw you and I loved you
As I did in a bygone day.
I saw you.
I shattered
Inside—
I lost
My way.
A heart,
Already broken,
Broke again today
When I saw you
Walking my way,
But I cherished your beauty
While I could steal a glance,
For I knew I might not get
Another (mis)fortunate chance
To see again the face I loved
In that long ago, bygone day.
I saw you. I said nothing.
There was nothing else to say.
I love you but I just walked away.
