I Saw You Again
J. Scott Smith
Tonight, I saw you again,
underneath the autumn moon
in a glow of yellow-orange.
In a moment my heart leapt
too soon and too late I knew:
seeing you, my thoughts derange.
As quickly, the descent came,
heartache pounding gentle still
familiar discord: no change.
I saw you again, and I
looked off and quietly willed
my heart its feelings estrange.
