Nostalgia

I fail to understand what hits me today
As I miss the lost waves in the sea of time
I mesmerize myself with tales of the last season
And roll down the window once again.

As I see ahead, the past beckons me
Or rather, it pines for me!
I miss my golden friends and the careless whispers
For the fights and make ups that did my world

Speaking of world, those were the days
When my world had just one form of tension
When life worries was only about marks
And fun revolved around rustic swings

Today I swing between the present and the past
What could have been a greater gift than my childhood?
Days that I could trade for a million dollars
Really! I still pine for that lovely life

And when I sit up and smile at the fond memories
I know what brings a spring in my step
Something that forms a part of my lifelong cherishes
Yes! I know what hits me is Nostalgia!!
