Nostalgia

21-Feb-2021

When the night sets in and you lie down to sleep, that's the perfect time when old moments and memories find their way back into your mind. Sometimes, pictures and songs catalyze this process of the mind replaying past scenes of your life

Why am I such a memory hoarder?

Heart pounds like a heavy boulder

They pity me for being nostalgic

But they're the one missing the magic

Pictures come alive in my mind

Showing how passed days were so kind

Songs bring back the connected incidents

All the serendipitous coincidents

Goosebumps sprinkling down my neck

My body going what the heck?

Upon reminiscing the innocent times

Brain solemnly rings a thousand chimes

My eyes curl up in tears

At the blurred sight of yesteryears

I can't wait for the night to come again

So I can wish for the old days in vain
