Now and then!

There is so much that the heart yearns for,

Day and night and more!

The old roads, the twists and turns

Memories galore it churns.

Is it better now than then?

The mind wonders as I pen.                                                  

Perhaps 'then'.. that is where I reside,

Timeless moments tested and tried!

I know 'now' is  where I am meant to be.

But who will rein the heart from being free?

While I thrive in the excuse of this freedom,

Never will I forget that 'now' will be 'then' soon!
