Would I press rewind...
Every once in a while
This thought crosses my mind
Would I turn back the time
Would I press rewind…
Go back to the time
When life was flowing
Like an unbridled river
And love was a certainty
Would I caution myself
Would I deter
When eyes met eyes
and I started dreaming
Dreams of togetherness
Dreams of sunshine
Dreams of you and me
Dreams that were not to be
Or go back to the moment
When love left us
When you moved on
And I kept waiting
They say love is eternal
For me the wait is
Sometimes it gets all mixed up
Waiting to end and no ending to wait
Every once in that while
I tell the time
All my moments are mine
And I shall never rewind
This has been a Free Write of fifteen minutes that I missed earlier and this is written for a 100 words on saturday prompt by my very own Richa Singh ... Oops but Sorry my free flow could not be contained in 100 words... But do forgive as only Once in a while one comes across such a great thought provoking prompt
time is strong and can make us all bold.
