Moment in Time

A flicker before my eyes and you weren't what caught my eye.
A girl who looked just like your overbearing, overweight friend....
As I glanced over my shoulder you were the same hair color, the same height, the same frame, no, almost.....not as well dressed.

I got out of my seat to double check....but what I've feared and craved all this time did not come to pass.
It wasn't you.

And here I thought I had put all this to rest on the wires of my being.......pernicious heart....pernicious longing.
