In the back of our minds

by Jo Hornsey   Apr 24, 2006


I walk past him,
and he walks past me,
I remember a life once forgotten by me
He looks like he remembers something too
"Um excuse me, who are you?"
I smile and say who I am.
In his mind, I see he is formulating a plan.
A plan of what we once were,
Right before him and her,
He smiles and says "never mind"
And walks on, leaving me behind
And I watch him walk away,
Hoping we'll meet again, some other day.
