To Revisit the Past

To revisit the past is to 
Go back and try to fit 
Into an old pair of I'll fitted
Shoes that never truly fit well at 
All in the first place
We are not able to go back 
For a reason even if we 
Can't see the reasoning in 
The present mindset 
Clarity comes in due time 
Closure comes in due time
Don't try and figure out the
Things that the present self
Can't comprehend in time it's
Current state of being

As I look back, I see desires not quenched and times I long to go back to. Your poem, gave me another measure of understanding why that is.. Bravo.
