The Web Poetry Corner - Robert Cameron Hazelton - Box of Lost Dreams

Box of Lost Dreams

by

Robert Cameron Hazelton

I opened up this box today,
A box I keep stashed well away,
Surface worn, cardboard frayed,
My vault for things from bygone days.

I read the cards and little notes,
The long letters and anecdotes,
Remembered the pain, drank in the hope of
My youthful days, now so remote.

Memories, so cruel to me,
Causing me to plainly see
All the things I failed to be,
All those wasted opportunities...

The box I'll put away for now
I've seen enough to crease my brow,
As it is, time is short - and how!
I've got to live for here and now.
