It Was Yesterday

Couldn't have been that long ago,
 saw your face in the mirror
  glancing back at me,
one last wave goodbye 
 as I drove away;
slowly,
 the memory is haunting
  enchanting and promising,
we'd see each other again
 sooner than later;
that's what we said, 
 told ourselves
  in the sadness
life 
 often follows a different path
 set in place
by greater powers than ours
by destiny, by God 
 and unseen angels
  now it is only a memory that remains
   it was of yesterday 
that slipped away.
