I Saw Her Only Yesterday
I saw her only yesterday.
She was as lovely as she's ever been.
And happy.
And, as I do each time we meet,
I tried to imprint on my memory
everything I saw and heard that is her.
We had coffee and talked,
about me,
about her.
And about the man she loves
and whether she will marry him.
We touched a little while we talked
and kissed when we said goodbye.
She said she loved me
and I said I loved her
then watched her leave,
wondering
if I would ever see her again.
