Yesterday just felt right compared to what I am facing now, but I am moving forward.

Run back to a time when flowers bloomed
When pleasantries were the order of the day
No one or nothing could bring disappointment 
Though unbeknownst, joy was a simple thing
Complexities had solutions that were easily seen
No sweat, worries or need for involvement
A simple time when questions had less deceit
Battles were fought without victims
Winners won without ever knowing 
there was a war occurring
Peaceful times when love was more
Heartaches healed quickly and ideas became shared
Long ago now replaced by adulthood
Troublesome roads longing for childhood
Facing tomorrow places the past behind
Unable to go back slowly accepting this fact
In this present moment problems resume
With no more yesterday how can I stay?
