The One that Got Away

Our English professor read to us this poem. She asked for a volunteer to read it to class again, and I wanted to but I didn't, lest my voice breaks and someone figures out what it means to me. But I'm posting it anyway :3

Seven Years, Later, Driving Home
by Justine U. Camacho

It is impossible to fall in love again
for the first time
The first blush, the heart quickening,
racing madly with a secret
these things happen only once
Yesterday, in the car,
only half-listening to a song,
I remembered.
And in my mind, I turned around.
If I had known that I would never
see you again.
If I had known that afternoon in August,
I would have stayed rooted there.
Watching you.
Nineteen yet and dreamy.
I felt the years deaden me, one by one.
And all the headlamps around me blurred.
It was so sweet,
even to feel
that wound again.
