Yesterday

Yesterday was conceived after one too many relationships, simply, dissolved. The blooms are so amazing and lovely when they are fresh and new but over time . . . I have learned from each moment and, from that, I have grown.

Have you ever experienced a Yesterday moment? Did you learn from it? 

YESTERDAY (it’s sad how things change over time)

I REMEMBER YESTERDAY.

I SAW YOU,
AND YOU TOOK MY BREATH AWAY.
YOU SAID, “HELLO”,
BUT I COULD NOT SPEAK.

I’M SURE THAT WAS YESTERDAY.

OUR NIGHTS WERE LIKE DREAMS.
YOU WINED,
YOU DINED,
YOU ROMANCED ME.

THAT HAD TO BE YESTERDAY.

WHEN WE MADE LOVE,
TIME STOPPED AND WAITED.
YOU SAID,
“YOU’RE ALL I’LL EVER NEED”.

IF WE COULD JUST GO BACK TO YESTERDAY.

YOU WERE MY KING,
AND IN YOUR ARMS,
I FELT LIKE A QUEEN.
TELL ME,

WHAT HAPPENED TO YESTERDAY?
