Nostalgia Edits
by Tanya Gervasi

sometimes I see
- like in a dream - 
memories that never were

 I linger
- forgetting myself - 
I step inside
the familiar yet unknown

 swinging back and forth
between fragments
of shells and stones

I close my eyes
I'm in a room
I hear the sea and smell the moss
Am I alone? I'm never sure
Could stay forever in this deserted land

yet a siren from afar
rings in my ear
for me to come
back to myself
here I am

I always wonder where I had left.
