People evolve with time, mature....
People change....become different....
I had loved the way you were Yesterday:
Spontaneous,
with that little bit
of endearing recklessness;
Heady,
Champagne sparks bursting on my tongue!
I'm wary of this you of Today:
Of this calibrated, standardised you.
Of the way you measure everything
With such excruciating thoroughness:
Thoughts,
Words,
Laughter..........
Then when you throw at me
That carefully mapped and weighted smile
I know for sure:
You are lost to Yesterday
Forevermore.
