Yesterdays

You are a picture from yesterday
smiling at me
Loving me once, then leaving me
forever

To cry alone, heartbroken
with only your memory
to hold

No substitute for these empty arms
No painkiller for this aching body
Aching for you and knowing
You will never return

Then

I think back now to what was then
And how it might have been
Of what we would have done
And what it all would mean
