Nostalgia

Nostalgia

as i looked down memory lane
from the skies above.....
everything seemed like a haze

the haze started to clear
and in the distance i could hear
voices that were familiar

i saw people....
some friends,some not,a couple
i saw my dog,which i'd luv to fondle

but deep down i knew i was there for something
which seemed to me like everything
but i didnt know where to begin

i started to look for answers...
to questions i was not sure of
i was now starting to feel unsure

as the search grew deeper
my mind was a flutter
my heart skipped a beat....

i saw a figure in the distance
staring down a mountain
into the valley of emptiness

the place smelt like heaven
painted by the plushest shades of green
and sweeeping drops of rain sweet rain

the figure now slowly turned around
and lo and behold!
i was starting to feel spell bound

the same beautiful eyes...the pristine look
it was like reading my dreams from a book
everything suddenly came rushing back

i was no longer unsure
i knew that this was what i was waiting for
there was only a sense of longing for more

her presence seemed captivating
i went closer and looked deep into her eyes
they seemed to tell me something

full of dreams full of hope
full of life and high on passion
yet so intense that i could not cope

i started to look around
the mountains, the trees and the river seemed unbound
and suddenly there was a fleeting sound

i turned and saw...she wasnt there
in the distance i saw her slowly vanish into the air
the mountains,trees and the river were all looking but didnt seem to care

there are some moments in life
worth thinking and the others just remembering
coz memories are just the beginning...
