Who knows where my life will lead
The days travel so fast
Yet time stands still
A part of me is in my past
The part of me that just couldn’t last
The piece of me that was left behind
Is what my heart will always try to find

I stayed back there to hide my tears
I couldn’t go on because of my fears
I fought a battle within myself
The place where darkness hid itself
Who can say what road I would take
If life was without those horrible mistakes

The Piece I left Behind

Topic: EmotionalPoetry

Who knows what the future holds
Who knows where my life will lead
The days travel so fast
Yet time stands still
A part of me is in my past
The part of me that just couldn’t last
The piece of me that was left behind
Is what my heart will always try to find

I stayed back there to hide my tears
I couldn’t go on because of my fears
I fought a battle within myself
The place where darkness hid itself
Who can say what road I would take
If life was without those horrible mistakes

Great! This is one of the best poems I've read in a long time. Very touching, too. You'll be made whole again.

God knows your path, and He'll show you in His time. If life was "without those horrible mistakes", we'd never grow stronger. Take faith, and hope.

I completely see where you are coming from in this poem. We all feel like we are alone in the world and in some of what we do we have to do alone.. But this poem shows a great portion of what all of us go thru regularly...
Keep up the great writing
