Reflections

Moving on, but I can not
Can't help looking back
Retrospective Oscillations
Nostalgic past reflections
Creating a sweet sour affections

Longings on empty mosaics
With indescribable scenarios 
Lost in a mental haze of illusion 
Nostalgia on past reflections

Bubble gum and candy wraps
Long forgotten comes to fore
Childhood memories loading 

I am lost in a daze of plays flooring
Hide and seek; bang, bang you are
 dead
Such nonsense they seem now
But then a real deal by your homies 
Nostalgic indulgence of the past a
 reflections

Childhood memories at a glimpse
Pranks on the run a cul-de-sac 
Summer rains in winter, autumn is 
 bemused
Spring cannot spare it's blushes
A reflection from the blues

Moving on, but I cannot 
Like a blast from the far past
Faces long gone stare at me
So real, scenes of yesteryears 
I have to move on from the the
 captivity of the past.
The arms of the future awaits me
Lovingly thrusting in it's trusts.
