Time only moves forward
Why then dear mind
Do You go backwards
Getting stuck in by lanes gone
Getting off, ever so often
To visit events forlorn
To reminisce, what charm you find
In plodding dead troughs behind
Hacking your way over and over
To dig chambers which are now blur
Time only moves forward
Liberating every done undone
Unfolding a new in every Sun
Why then O Mind!
Do you move backwards?
