Tainted Nostalgia

Larry Flâneur

Everything has changed but all is the same,
Just this time without you.
Goals have changed from wanting fame
To not to feel so blue.

Slept to try and hide from life
Though restless nights now plague me,
Dreams lift me from my strife
But I remember them so vaguely.

Apathy to the world around me
You keep on passing me by:
Affection resides by sea
Where we flourished in a lie.

Truthfully it is not you to blame
Nothing has changed, but nothing is the same.

    'Slept to try and hide from life
    Though restless nights now plague me,
    Dreams lift me from my strife
    But I remember them so vaguely.

    Apathy to the world around me
    You keep on passing me by:
    Affectionately still besides the sea
    Where we flourished in a lie.'
    love these verses!
    what a wonderful poetic talent
    you choose to cultivate and share
    I wish you all the best
    with your inking ambitions, dear poet
    thank you! for choosing to share
