Is it really too bad
to cling to the past?
To want to go back
To the hours that'll never come back
To the faces that will never shine
With the same smile
To the moments which will never unfold
The way they are always told
Who would not miss
An unripe love's kiss
A flicker of a street lamp
At childhood's hour
A multifoliate rose
We picked for you, mother?
