It's a Trip of No Return

So I left, just as I came four years ago
Brought nothing, and could take nothing away
Maybe I can always go back, as people said
to the island that is so near, yet so far away
But what shall I do when I am back
when people are no longer the people of the old days…
Friends become acquaintance, acquaintance strangers
while all the memories are so easily washed away
Wrong! It is a trip of no return
