I have no excuse for my absence - I have a real life with work and deadlines, sadly.
Hoping that you all are doing well.
In the mean time, during one of our many breaks, another poem for everyone to enjoy.
I wanted to talk about the themes of Change, how inevitable it is; How people often times find it difficult to let go of events, even obsessing over things in a way that you glorify parts that you shouldn't.
For me, it was also about Acceptance and moving on from negative thinking.
Tell me what you think. Where I can improve.
Nostalgia / Change:
Times will come, so full of change,
Walking a journey which we all must make.
To travel along, and to turn the page,
Of life's long stories our lives all take.
Beholden only to time's twilight hours,
The fool sees none of the brighter lights,
Imprisoned within old dreams' powers,
In vain attempts to relive old delights.
Faded pasts held firmly in embrace,
Ignoring paths that remain unspoiled,
Failing to see new paths full of grace,
As fear and memories hold us coiled.
For better or worse, time marches on,
And so too must we, along river's thread,
Where the past, in dreams, is now long gone,
With futures free of the nightmares' dread.
