Newest Nostalgia Poems (1,154)

If I could change the seasons or the colours of the world.
I would use that power to light your way, and watch your road unfurl.
If I changed direction of the hands upon the clock,
I would let them spin us back in time and at our meeting they would stop.
I'd change the words I said that day to truth instead of lies.
I'd tell you that I love and loved what I see in your eyes.
and if i had that chance again to hold you on that day.
Id never let you go again and watch you walk away.
And that would change my future sky's to blue instead of grey.

I feel so alone
My heart has turned to stone
I’m so cold
I can’t get warm
My eyes are glazed
All the tears I’ve shed
I sometimes feel so dead
My head hurts
My lips move
Never making a sound
As I fall to the ground
I ask myself what can I do
As I sit here feeling blue
My heart is broke
Everything has come undone
I can no longer see the sun
All I see is darkness

Another year of starving mouths
With not enough to eat
Another year in tatty clothes
And nothing on their feet

Another year of homelessness
And deaths upon our streets
Another year of promises
Our leaders failed to keep

Another year of losses
Of our friends and family
Another year of knowing
Even gone, they're still with me

Another year, we watched it pass
With memories good and bad
Another year with debts and bills
And also fun we had

Another year we're glad is gone
A new one starts today
Another year with promise
Let's all try enjoy each day

I went to my first Chuck E Cheese
I went to my first two Milwaukee Brewers games
I got my first dental implants
I got my first mp3 player in my car
Donald Trump became our president
North Korea shot off some rockets
Many s*xual assault allegations on celebs
Many shot and killed in Las Vegas
Opioids epidemic takes many lives
Hurricanes hit Texas and Puerto Rico
Solar eclipse across the US
Charlottesville violence
NFL players taking a knee
We lost Mary Tyler Moore, Chuck Berry, Don Rickles
Roger Moore, Adam West, George A. Romero, Glenn Campbell
Jerry Lewis, Hugh Hefner, Tom Petty, Fats Domino
And David Cassidy

The year's that have passed hold fond memories, adventure, joy, and heartache
But my ship ain't come in yet, and of this gift of life I'm going too fully partake

Season's have come and gone, like mirages, leaving nary a solitary clue
But my ship ain't come in yet, and there's plenty of thing's left that I need to do

All night the wind blew, gusting, it shook my house on it's frame
But my ship ain't come in yet, and no two day's are ever the same

Shades of gray streak my hair, when the weather changes my joints often ache
But my ship ain't come in yet, and I'm confident my life is still mine too make

My dog Sam, his ship docked yesterday, and believe me it was almighty hard
But my ship ain't come in yet, and I buried him in his favorite spot in the backyard

Its been a voyage of life I've enjoyed too the fullest, I'd surely take it once more
But my ship ain't come in yet, and until it does I'll carry on, just as before.

I see the currents of time marching swiftly, like waves pushed by a mighty wind
But my ship ain't come in yet, and I'm anxious too see places I've never been

Moon between the wires
dreams in towers on cold steel nights
iron bridge century

Everyday is the same
There's no change, there's no joy
I feel weak, I feel tired
I'm depressed, I'm alone
All these thoughts in my head
f*ck, it's all a big mess
Let's move on and forget
All I need is some rest

I feel lost, I feel trapped
Nothing's real, all is fake
When your mind's playing tricks
And it's all just a game
I will never give up
I will not run away
I'll be strong, I will stay
I will make it one day

I will make it one day

Ah nature
take my lonely hands
let rains wash away spots of past
let breeze touches my skin
**
Ah nature
let butterflies cuddle my heart
take me away from false colors of this world
take me to the land of honesty
**
Ah nature
take me to the world of peace
let me be a part of grandma's tales
hug my emotions
**
Ah nature
remove my tears
calm my soul
i wish to be a soulless statue
Ah nature

The whole truth is rarely heard
gullible folks believe every word
The liar you can't believe a bit
without even trying we forget

The guilty must tread lightly
mostly deaf hear slightly
The eternal flame remains lit
What happens is 'shit'

The smart gets branded a nerd
liberal left truly depicts absurd
The precarious aren't so sure
grown-up doesn't define mature

What comes is not expected
And expectations
Fall short of
Reality
