Spur of the bygone days

Spur of the bygone days
Will the dust in my eyes
Reflect the grief of a goodbye
Will it cherish the laughs
And remind me of jokes
That were never so funny
Until a day like today
When I am leaving the world behind
And carrying but an empty heart
With little memories of
The times we shared
And dreams we had
To return to a life
Oh so ordinary
Unlike when we were
A bunch of kids
On their school trip
All merry and gay
Like fresh strawberries
From the fields we passed
Like luscious apples
From the orchards we saw
And today as I return
To just another day
A déjà vu haunts
And talks recoil
On a summer afternoon
When the world is busy
I am lost in thought
Of the dream that I lived
And the smile life had brought
