just a quick write on how nostalgia can eat up the time we have.
I write a lot of nostalgic poetry
Of days long gone and things of the past
Memories of better times
Of a Utopia that could never last
But there is a danger to the life we have
Nostalgia takes its toll
We forget about the present
While the devil takes your soul.
These days were made for living
While the past is dead and gone
Nostalgia is unforgiving
You need hope to carry on.
Looking back can make you smile
At a world no longer here
There is too much waiting up ahead
No need to wait in fear
To wait for what the future brings
In a world going slowly mad
Enjoy the day, live your life
Keep the good forget the bad
Time will come when all you need
Are the memories to take you away
While the world is burning and people cry
Just waiting for judgment day.
