Sentimental Nostalgia

〡
We all were surrounded
by these little great things
we have never appreciated

We never recognized their lives
to be exact

〢
We thought they would just sit there eternally
at least long enough
that even if they are gone some day
it would not be us waving goodbye

We take that for granted

〣
Sentimental nostalgia happens a lot in my town

A passively cryptic and lifeless way we use
to pet and lie to ourselves about escaping from the confusions

Works mentally and sorry
only mentally
I forgot the address that

〤
Nostalgia did not escape us
Guilt is still around
the guilt of not being able to change our town back
to the unchanged we were in

〥
I knew it
Been here as we all have
Long enough that you never ever appreciated
nor noticed of.▕
