AN INWARD GLANCE




When I long once more for yesterday,
What illusion of it do I miss?
Is it death of youth I find I mourn…
Little else is worth a backward glance.

I allow my mind to surf the pass,
Ignoring the pitfalls waiting there,
The memory of the tidal waves
I rode while living yesterday.

And yet...what is this melancholy,
I have when traveling back in time,
What in my pass I want recovered…
Could it really be just youth I miss?
