Nostalgia

Pamela Charekwa

I ask myself why l attach
I ask myself why l despatch my heart and feelings to a wrong destination
So, after the despatch poor heart and soul trapped in a cage later thrown in a trash can
Why do l easily forget about yesterday’s cry bath
Its like my life is a rematch and l don’t learn
I cant justify my own emotions
I wish l had walked away from the start and left things at hello
Silly me enjoys stopgap moments and wonder why the happiness never lasts
I think l need a self spank
My whole self is now sunk in a dam of NOSTALGIA
But l smile because its a lesson after a lesson
