A seemingly innocent phrase-
"that'd be an awkward way to meet someone."-
has me transported back in time.
A time of love- and laughter.
Even though I was with you-
all I heard-
saw-
smelt-
felt-
was him.
For the rest of the day I found myself-
comparing the two of you.
Weighing the pros and cons.
Trying to remind myself,
he is the past and you are the present.
****.
Nostalgia is a *****.
