i turned around,
and there you were.
it was as if time had stood still.
your eyes were still sparkling like
the diamonds i had remembered,
and your laughter was still as beautiful
as the loveliest italian aria.
you touched my hand,
so lightly most wouldn’t notice,
and i shivered—
still as attracted to you now.
then i noticed the ring—
your wedding ring—
shining on your hand.
making my excuses,
i ran out of there
before you could see my tears…
but i couldn’t help but think of
what might have been.
