You were beautiful
          You hold the heavens in your eyes
You spoke to me just once
          Saying hello in that condescending way you do
I brushed your arm
          I lied and said it was by accident
I watched you walk away
          Relishing the way that you move
You turned back around
          As I knew you would
Smiling slightly,
          Just ever so slightly, and just for me
You nodded once
          Your hair falling in whispers across your forehead
I recognized the look you wore,
          I wore it too
You were thinking of who we once were
          The memories like fire, lighting up your eyes
I smiled back,
          Just slightly and just for you
Then you turned back around and left me behind
          Not for the first time
And I turned around and left you behind
          *For the first time
