this nodeshell reminds me of a time long past (poetry)

This nodeshell that didn't used to be,
reminds me of a long time past.
Of all the messages we once sent
and the connections that didn't last.

And seeing it linked in red
brings me to a bitter reverie
of all that could have been
and of all that still could be.

• haunted by nodeshells, like pronouns signifying other worlds
• It kills me to watch them go
• Nostalgia ain't what it used to be
• There are many things that I would like to say to you but I don't know how
• A Glimpse Of The Probable Future
• note from future self
