Yesterday


Was it yesterday when I wished the day would not end,
Was it yesterday when the night seemed so bright and clear,
Was it yesterday that her touch brought the chills in the air,
Was it yesterday that holding her hand seemed just the right thing to do,
Was it yesterday that her hair smelt so aromatic,
Was it yesterday that her head leaning on my shoulder made the perfect sense,
Was it yesterday that when she breathed the same air as I,
Was it yesterday when I hugged her to keep her warm,
Was it yesterday that we talked for hours and it felt like a big burden of my soul,
Was it yesterday that we sat close, so close that I could hear her breathe,
Was it yesterday that every time she smiled it lit up the dark,
Was it yesterday that I had a smile driving back home,
Was it yesterday that I was not alone.
