-Nostalgia Bites-

When sickly nostalgia sings,
Wrapped in memories.
Swallowing you whole,
Spitting on the good times.
Reminding you of the past,
Questions are asked,
Characters recast.

You laugh at me and my options,
Bad starts, bad beginnings.

We were not one, not ever,
Yet why do memories haunt me?
Taunt me.

What we used to have
Now lost,
Now what?

We ask questions, we sit in silence
Feeling sorry for ourselves
Listen to the same music as before,
Reminiscing quietly,
Deathly almost,
Don't remember
Easier to forget,
Don't go back, don't fall.
