Revisited Streets

I walked the streets in search of that
enchanted time we knew;
when all the world was young and quite
revolved around we two.

The streets had turns I didn't know;
I was confused and lost.
The signs had all been jumbled
at each avenue I crossed.

Defeated, I retraced my steps;
the past I could not find.
'Twas then I knew the path to you
lies only in my mind.

the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost

Too true...I've been remembering a lot lately.. and this hits the nail on the head.

Well done.

You're so right, there is no going back. Knowing that still doesn't keep me from wishing that I could sometimes. Very nice writing.

Life is part regrets, part good things, too. It's mastering them to not shadow the other is what takes the work. Reflecting isn't easy sometimes. :'(
