Deeper Than Roots

Yearning
Reminiscent
Of moments forgotten
Of memories incognito
Of losses never gained


Moving
Through the corpses
Of roads not taken
Of words never said
Of chances never had

Standing
In the middle
Of emotional minefields
Of voidful mountains
Of asphalt seas

Coming
Into being
Of feelings that never were
Of emptinesses too full
Of nostalgia
Of nostalgia.
