Nostalgia

Little house

Timeless street

Childhood garden

 

The scent of your preschool playground after a storm on a Wednesday in may

 

The ring of your parents' doorbell

 

The weepy feeling looking at childhood photos and knowing you'll never get those moments back

 

The melancholy moment you realize the book you're reading was your favorite bedtime story

 

The second the atmosphere shifts and you're suddenly thrown back to memories of your mothers embrace on a stormy night

 

The suffocating feeling of revisiting tales thinning at the ends as your recollection slowly fades

 

The slipping grip of what once was that will never be again, slowly turning faded and acid washed until its nothing but a feeling you cant put a name to

 

Nostalgia
