Mistaken
By Vikram Seth
I smiled at you because i thought that you were someone else ; you smiled back ; and there grew |
Between two strangers in a library |
Something that seemed like love ; but you loved me |
( If that's the word ) because you thought that i |
Was other than i was, And by and by |
We found we'd been mistaken all the while |
From that first glance, that first mistaken smile. |
