Feels like yesterday
you stopped your scooter
and said
come on, hop on
you looked into my eyes
as if saying
read the feelings in my heart
and silly me
I read them perfectly
I stopped waiting for the bus
climbed on without hesitation
sat right behind you
and through the rearview mirror
gave you my sweetest smile
that day
I ditched the bus
for what I thought
was the ride of my life
until we reached our destination
and you introduced me
to your boyfriend
turns out
I wasn’t her destination
just her passenger
I got off the scooter
wearing a face
that could make the bus driver
feel sorry for me
and guess what
the next bus
never looked so attractive
