We held hands, we locked mouths
We faced north, we faced south
We locked eyes, and stopped time
We jumped together, and together mime’
So why does the air seem stale now?
We exchanged clothes, our teasing stood
We went out, in any mood
We knew happiness and knew sadness
We together cried, in love and madness
So why does the air seem stale now?
I wish I possess the powers to erase
I wish I possess the powers to turn back time
I wish I possess the magic to turn things to its beginnings
I wouldn’t have hesitated to take us back,
Back to when we belonged,
Belonged to each other.

One reply on “WISH I COULD TURN BACK TIME”
Hmmm, some nostalgic feelings huh? this poem reminds me of some things too. ‘so why does the air seem stale now?’ Very rhetoric though I wish it could be answered
