To slumber yet another day
Their withered souls envy my life
And therefore strive to give me strife
They speak of love that’s come and gone
They speak of night while breaks the dawn
If I turn back and look behind
I’ll miss what life wants me to find
I must leave Past where it should be
Refuse to answer to its plea
For then can I my journey take
And travel on, for Goodness’ sake.

These lines say so much. Isn't it frustrating how little reminders always bring you back to pain that you think you have gotten past? Good Write. |

| Excellent stuff. The past is something I have trouble leaving where it belongs. I've tried to write about it myself, but always seem to fall short. Your stanzas here were straightforward and staggeringly to the point and it gave the poem a sort of strength and (sorry I'm trying to think of a word, sort of like relevance, but not exactly relevance. more like a mix between importance and relevance I guess. lol I cant think of the word, but hopefully it exists) nevertheless, it was an excellent piece. |
