Reflections

A Poem by Lanky
"

thoughts about the flow of time

"
One day in life's long journey
when looking back is the only option
reflect upon the past
look back and see what once you were
see how times gradual force 
has changed you to your core
Faces age
Minds mature
but whats left behind?
Memories, Oh memories.
Of that lost, long forgotten time
for getting here was slow
but looking back it feels so fast
these memories of younger days
are all that you have left

like all good things made from humans
memories are surely flawed
so maybe the past is further gone
than we used to admit before
for whose to say that memories
which we all hold so very dear
aren't falsified little lies
we use to make us smile

the future is blind
because it is not yet light
but the past is gone forever
So bring on the future
because the now has faded
and the past like time
is lost to us
