Seems Like Yesterday- Mystic
Seems like yesterday I heard your voice
floating through the window,
calling me in from the street
where childhood games stretched into forever.
Seems like yesterday the seasons felt endless,
summers of bare feet on hot pavement,
winters of breath drawn white against the dark.
We thought the days would never learn how to end.
Seems like yesterday
You were by my side,
steady in the quiet moments.
your eyes full of hope,
Your laugh pulled me forward,
steady and warm.
But life twisted the path
and I lost you
somewhere along the way.
Still…
when the wind brushes the trees.
I swear I hear you…
a part of yesterday
laced into today
reminding me love never leaves,
it only changes shape.
