So Beautiful

You were so beautiful yesterday,
When the air smelled of wildfires,
When a nostalgic fog painted the city with sepia
When I got a flat tire.

You were so beautiful yesterday,
When a cold morning wrapped us in its chilly blanket,
When our silhouettes glided through the parking lot floodlights,
With our fingers entwined in an amorous fight,
And a rare car would bid us farewell with its sleepy headlights.

You were so beautiful…
Yesterday.
