Resentment

Treasured cherished memories
Of better joy filled days
Ravaged by the cruel passage of time
That took my joy away

Bitter sweet taunting memories
Stored in the darkened corridors
Of my mind
Where there can be found
A  worn video set to rewind.

Carefree now savoured special times
Stored in the eclectic album of my heart
But the yearning for such days
That rips my heart apart.
And haunt my soul and mind.
If only i had appreciated them
At the time.
