The treasure called nostalgia





I opened a treasure trunk with a heavy feeling...
some lovely memories neatly folded and stored...
a huge metal lock to safeguard it forever...
the key put in a sleek little casket...
the casket placed in a small wooden box...
the wooden box kept in a huge combination vault...
the combination consciously forgotten...
and yet, stolen glances at the trunk from time to time...

Bedtime stories...
Faded talks...
Deserted places...
Long lost friendships...
Secret stuff...
Awesome  friends...
Innocent love...
Million feelings...
Thousand thoughts...
the laughter...
the pain...
the happiness..

I'm not stuck in the past but unveiling the memories that are stuck in time...
trying reconnecting with parts i forgot...
about faces that smiled and frowned at me...
hands that hugged, cared and guided me...
simple fun that made me complete once...
remembering people who touched my life...
I'm missing the true moments that made me..
and so there are stolen glances at the trunk from time to time...
