Rear Mirror

There is nothing I miss more than the old times

Back when everything was as smooth as poetic rhymes

When everything fit as perfect puzzle pieces

You were the peanut butter to my reese’s

The milk to my cookie

We made plans, but we were always playing hooky

Back when the days were easy

And it was only car rides that made us queazy

Car rides to no particular destination

We didn't think, no hesitation

Always on our feet like “verb, its what you do”

And I would do anything as long as I was with you

Just anything to see your smile’s dimple

Back when life was nice and simple

When there was no society telling us how to act

And knowing that tomorrow isn't a guaranteed fact

Yesterday is gone, lying in the rear mirror

I just wish that we were still there
