Words For The Soul
`DAYS OF YOUTH PAST`
Torn between nostalgia
and getting older
Its been 40 years since graduating
Gone are the years of my youth
Mixed with pleasure and pain
Today I am reminded
That the gathering of those friends
Brings me such mixed emotions
Wanting to leave days past
Yet, there is a quiet curiousity
Of how it would feel to reunite
If only for a brief period of time
So many feelings
Rising up from my Soul
I let go of all expectations
As I move with the flow
People change
And our paths take different turns
What once was
May never be again
I am forced to look back
With fondness in my heart
For those experiences
Shaped the woman I am today
