Moving forward
A foreign land though familiar territory
Welcoming smiles on alien faces
Approached with verdant enthusiasm
Another delightful city, suggest the traces.
Vain attempts at oblivion
Wouldn’t erase the indelible memories
Of times spent in the chastity of good old friendship
Gratifying company divesting teenage worries.
Wondering if it’s abundance of curiosity
Or assurance that phenomenon repeats itself
Inhibits fostering of a disillusioned outlook,
Reminiscences it will solely add to the shelf.
Reason fails to escalate acclimatization
Last time, this time and hence again
Recurrence, however sure did teach to rather relish
Than regret walking down the memory lane.
So today I walk out the door with
Expectations none but anticipation unheard
New faces will soon become familiar
Just another day, moving forward..
Moving Forward:
A very well written poem saachi, moving on from teenage angst, is a brilliant idea. Like your poem very much.
