Like Yesterday

Your name was spoken,
overheard on a phone call.
I came to see you,
my friend from primary school;
clicked, chatted, like yesterday.

Isn't that how it works?! You just pick up right where you left off! -- 'like yesterday.' (At least I do).

Yes, it was totally unexpected. We hadn't seen each other since 11 years old, 50 years ago!
