I Have Nostalgia/For Times Others Lived /For Experiences Never My Own Poem by Shalom Freedman

I Have Nostalgia/For Times Others Lived /For Experiences Never My Own



I have nostalgia
For times others lived
For experiences never my own
I long for them to live again
As if I had lived them before
And in my longing
I know myself wrong
Tainted with envy and sadness
An old man who wants to be again
What he never was
To live again
So much he never lived.
