Another day riding the subway,
And in the window, I see you again in the reflection,
With different hair, a face wide awake,
I see you again, ten years younger.
\-
We exchange glances,
As if we’d already met,
As if in past lives,
We shared more than just a stop.
\-
I say goodbye in my mind and step out the door,
Without realizing, the person behind—
It's me, it's you, it’s the innocence of yesterday,
The glimmer of who I was, never to be again.
