Half and Half

Half and Half

Part of me is urging to return

Back home, where I may

Re-live those wonderful childhood years

Bask again in parental love

Touch those cultural roots

That go deeper than the soul...

Re-connect with long-lost friends

And re-count those sweet and sour

Memories of times gone by......

And yet part of me,

That finds comfort in distance

Being half-way around the globe, is

Afraid of crushing that nostalgic world

Afraid of loosing a precious past

Afraid of learning that

Past cannot be re-lived

Except in memories.
