People and places

A Poem by Najam Us Saher
"

One can go back to those places they have been but cannot meet those people they have once seen.

PEOPLE AND PLACES
There are places I've been to,
There are scenes I have seen,
Time is never still and enough,
To go back to places I've been.
Sometimes I wonder,
Where are those kids I saw on the way,
I can never see them as they are miles away.
What about those faces I saw smiling?
Are they still happy in the lives they are living?
What about those I saw suffering?
Did their life change?
Did they find out their purpose of living?
What about the people I saw sitting alone,
Did they find someone?
Or still feel forlorn?
I cannot know, 
A bitter truth it remains,
To never see them and not to meet them again.
One can go back to those places they have been,
But cannot meet those people they have once seen.
When you travel and meet people, don't you wish to see them again? 
When you are on your way, don't you think about the people you have seen?
Do you long to go again to the places you've been?
