I finally poured the concrete
And solidified the past
Into neat little paths
Of "Remember when..."
And "Life was simpler then"
Stamped squarely, brushed clean
Perfectly preserved
For a visit
down the road
When things seem harder
More complicated
Stressed about the day
A turn to look back
With a sentimental sigh
And still,
The perfect path behind us
Is actually paved
With the struggle of today
This poem is about:
Our world
