Nostalgia

I weep these tears
these tears of remembrance
who I was
who I became

I weep these tears
these tears of longing
what I beheld
what I foretold

I weep these tears
these tears of age
why I was
why I had regrets

I weep these tears
these tears not of pity
but of joy
but of sorrow

I weep these tears
these tears of love
what I felt
what I overcame

these tears flowed
they flowed like a river
a river of remembering

I wept them dry
these tears of dust
just blew away
in the winds of change

I wept these tears
these tears of life
why so short?
why am I dying?

these tears over time
I weep for love
I wept for memories of you
