Nightly monologue

Thoughter

Why do I feel nostalgic?

Am I craving the past or ain’t I appreciating present?

Why do i found such peace in nostalgia?

To live again with those ppl

Is it a privilege to our souls?

To my soul?

Why am I haunted by nostalgia?

Is it the fear of future or the unacceptance of present?

Either ways it’ll haunt me

Am I living in the past?

Why can’t I let go of it?

Wht makes me attached to it?

Memories,nostalgia,childhood

Mentally m still living in the past

Emotionally m afraid of the future

Now? I can’t live without thinkin bout it

It’s a piece of me

A birthmark innate born with me

A curse

A sin

So why do I feel nostalgic?

Cs I crave,

Feelings? Emotions? Love? Hate?

Maybe yes

Maybe not

Nostalgia,sometimes feels pleasing

Sometimes got my gut wrenching

I hate it, i crave it , i miss it

Why are u haunting me nostalgia?

Why am I a slave to u?

Why do the past keeps on haunting me?

A slave

That’s who I am

I got slavered by the past

Can u let me free nostalgia?

Will I be a slave forever?

By nostalgia?

By the past?

By life?

    A poem that we have all felt at one time or another when the past calls out to us from that fog of distant memory that seemed so warm and wistful.

    • Thoughter

      U worded it perfectly

      An interesting write around something we all have and do, and for some reason nostalgia always makes the past look better, which I have never really understood, enjoyed the read

      • Thoughter

        Thank u!! Still dunno why do we find such comfort in it and always think of it differently than how we lived in it, can’t never understand nostalgia
