escapril day 6: nostalgia
For todays escapril prompt I decided it would be fun to try writing a couple of poems using predictive text like I have done before, starting with a couple of iterations of the word ‘nostalgia’. I had a lot of fun doing this, I hope you enjoy 🙂
i.
nostalgia is the only reason why
we are not letting go of our path towards happiness,
and our fear of sadness and failure
to create an important relationship between us and others
who have lived with a lot more than a few moments of sadness.
when you don’t realise how much pain you can feel
and your heart shaped into a life you have learned from,
the things you do and how you do them
don’t feel like they should matter to you
quite as much as you let them.
ii.
I have nostalgia for a time when you don’t know how much you can feel
and your heart is just a reflection of how many people have lived,
in the past few years as I have learned to be grateful for
those moments where I felt lost
as much as I am grateful for the times I felt I understood,
the significance of things and the opportunities that I will find
are the most influential of voices in our minds.
they are the ones who can know how
we are going to change the world of darkness in our light.
iii.
There is nostalgia in between us and our eyes
we are blessed to see the things we are looking for
and we will find it all
together we are a part of us and we
will always remain a part of the world.
