I saw someone that looked like you today.
Among the masses of people.  
My breath hitched in my throat.
My palms began to sweat.
My mind began whirling, and I was so focused on how bizarre that you were here...in this exact place as I.
You were wearing that hat you always used to wear.
Your short curly hair poking out.
I was so blind by happiness that I didn't take notice
that your hair was a different color. Or that
he was shorter than you.
But I was so convinced he was you.
But as you walked past, no recognition took place.
No eye contact.
His eyes weren't blue,
like yours.
His smile wasn't happy,
like yours.
My heart
instantly
deflated.
And I held my books closer and continued walking on.
I saw someone that looked like you today.
Among the masses of the people.
