Creative Writing - Poetry - Nostalgia

by Songül Arslan

Songül Arslan.

There used to be more
To this crazy life
Than what we were taught
And what we had seen

There used to be a shimmer
A bright glance of the wonder
Glowing with all its power
To make us ponder

About the questions in life
That kept our souls from dying

Now the sheen is merely a memory
that is fading slowly
and the satisfying answers
become enigmas incomprehensibly

There used to be more
So much more

Not anymore
