Traveler

We we’re born in this world; we grow up and eventually grow old and die. We call it the Circle of Life, it is the rule of nature that we cannot bend but that doesn’t mean we can’t try.

Traveler

Do you want to go back in time?

Did you even consider it sometime?

Bending the law of nature,

Going back to the past and seeing the future.

 

Mind tickles as I stand in front of it,

It shines while the sun hits.

Inviting with its bronze metal body,

An object desires by many.

 

Like a child, ecstatic for a new toy

Stepping inside, eyeing and caressing as I enjoy.

The key to what I most desire

Brings hope and ablaze with fire.

 

Scenery changes and buildings grew old

And there she is, standing beautifully in the cold.

My beloved who I once lost

Lived in a past where I can never cross.

This is so well penned!
The rhyming scheme, the similes, the metaphors are adding to the great flow of it...
The title is well chosen
I'm just being honest with it..

A conundrum-happy and sad at the same time. Hard to accomplish, but done well here. Consider telling what "it" is. Also, consider replacing a comma with the word "and" on the line "Brings hope, ablaze with fire," or other revision.
