Why So Nostalgic?

Fireflies dancing in the dark sky
Remember how we’d catch them
Then open our hands so they’d fly
Before the dream became a sham

Unable to see the danger up ahead
Deadly obstacles remained hidden
Sleeping innocently in a comfy bed
As adults are becoming guilt ridden

Rushing through our childhood stage
Wanting to grow up so damn fast
Leaving the nest to enter life’s cage
While being nostalgic about the past
