going backward into time

it doesn't work
that way.
there is no turning back
the clock,
or calendar
page
to savor what was
right, or fix
what went wrong.
there is no time machine,
no magic
wand,
or spell to take you
backwards
to another day,
now gone.
prayer won't help either.
but occasionally
you can get there
while listening to
the sweet sound 
of a well worn song.
