Past, Present, FutureA Poem by Kate Henderson
My past is dead
My memory died All remembrance has gone As easily as the Sun shone Rewrite my past Make it anew Recreate events As I would want Erase my past Make it last Something dark Something primitive Back to the Aborigines My past is a reverie Merely a memory A distant image In a cacophony of sound Reflected in the present Repeat the past Make it last Re-do all that has been done Forget the past It doesn't exist No matter what they tell you Start over Reborn You will be victorious It's insignificant Your past has died Ancient and lost To the King of the Underworld Nothing Nothing So rewrite, renew, redress Recreate yourself The past you should have lived Is written in the forgotten books Of Ancient magic
