“NOSTALGIA”
.
We can’t bring back the hands of the clock as it ticks every second, every minute, another day. There was a void in my life.
.
But if I could , I want to go back to my past with my friends sharing wonderful memories, dreams and ambitions in life.
.
I vividly remembered when traveling through rough roads I saw a light from afar.
.
That gave me hope and wanted to reach that light.
.
I started to climb a ladder step by step not looking backward and determined to reach the peak.
.
I succeeded and it was the greatest momentum of my life, enjoying and savoring the perks freely given.
.
I was so engrossed with everything I achieved, thus forgetting the friends I left behind.
.
But when the euphoria within me died, I realized I was alone.
.
That there is a void in my life.
.
I saw my reflection in the mirror “Am I happy?”
.
The blinking of my phone reverted my thoughts and a message sent “See you at a reunion…..
.
” Coincidentally a strain of music floated in my ears, an old song.
.
.
“Make new friends but keep . the old ones. One is silver …and the other gold.”
