Nostalgia
by Abigail Gatz, Senior
Fall 2016
Funny concept
Freshmen can’t have it
Sophomores can’t begin to understand
Juniors can barely taste it
And seniors live within its state of being.
To question one's existence
Because nostalgia has hit home
Is not a new concept.
Yet do you stop and wonder
Why did you give an idea the authority?
Why is the driving force to not regret
To have fun, to let go?
When will we let the moment we are in marinate our soul
Then let our seasoning of momentary life
Dress the world by our actions.
Nostalgia
We all feel it
We all know it
We all hate it
We all love it
We all take it.
