Once More
I saw you yesterday once more
sadness on an empty face
seeing though you never looked
hiding in some distant place
frozen as I slowed and passed
while memories sweetly smoldered yet
helpless in a misty fog
with all emotions turned to fear
no time left for you and me
my life beyond all lovers gifts
yours again were it should be
from then till now is just blank space
effort given up for naught
almost but now sadly lost
