Reminiscing
April 15, 2019
Stained scrapbook flips a page,
a chapter ends.
Dusted brown box seals memories in the past.
Reminds us when:
we were living in the lights and honks;
we were laughing in our boxy home.
Back when times were simple,
When friends kept each other company.
Kept secrets unknown.
Wind blows.
Seasons change.
The credit scene rolls over the screen.
Silence.
Movie’s over.
Then the next one starts.
Where no one stands behind my shoulder.
I’m all alone
Screen time runs.
Life lives on.
Some roads in life,
You just have to face it,
all alone.
