THAT TIME

Long ago we met under the smiling sun
Above the green grass
Between the brown trunks of trees
Behind the curtains of friendship

That was the time of understanding
Which I had failed to understand
That was a time we were together
When we could have made our land

My heart would often get pangs
My eyes would often search for you
But understanding is the word
That is known to just a few

Like golden memories are those moments today
Almost a beautiful dream with clarity
But only now do I realize
That was once a true time of reality

I wish I could go back to the past
Adjust the things
Make up for the future
And with happiness sing

But I regret the God given gift
The gift of understanding
Which he gave only a bit
Having partiality in every single thing
