Sweetly lies Nostalgia
Oh, how she lies
Sweetly she lies
A siren song of bygones
Calling
Beckoning
Promises of long-lost lovely things
Truth’s tarnished bits
Buffed bright
Oh, how she lies
Sweetly she lies
Languid vision draped in shimmer
charmed
transfixed
pictures of once was
luring you,
sternforemost
oh, how she lies
sweetly she lies
offerings of sweet honey treats
alfalfa
clover
fragrant, sensual reminders
palate pleasing
flavours of youth
oh, how she lies
how sweetly she lies
without yield you may love her
from afar
for now
venture near to discover pose
in focus disjointed;
memory piecemeal and raucous strain
Oh, how sweetly nostalgia lies
she lies
