His Romantic Past

He came to the conclusion,
After much confusion,
That romantic nostalgia
For times gone by is a delusion,
Since life was ever more restrained,
While in these modern times,
He freedom and comfort gained,
But were he to the past returned,
He'd wish with all his heart,
His bridges to 'the good old days'
Were never burned...
