The Past.

Oh past you've become so present

Why does it seem like you can never leave

You trail behind like a small child and its mother.

Can't you just find someone else to traumatize

Oh past how you will never leave

No matter how much I plead

I'll try to blind myself from the marks

The marks I lead and can't be erased

How my scars and your scars have collided

Can't you just find someone else to mark

Oh the past

How I can't stand your sorry a*s

You trail and pull and scar and mark

Why can't you just do it all to someone else

Aren't you done with me yet?

The past is allway's hard to get over, lingers over you like a blanket, and when it seems to be over it finds it way back. Great piece marquise is right, it feels like it should go on a little. Either way great job:D

it is hard to deal with the past.. we never view our own lives in too much postitve light for some reason. In regards to this poem tho, I would like it personally if you extend it.. it seems as if you have more to say...

good write in general tho

Very nice


The past always creeps up behind me daily
It never let's me be

This is something that most people deal with
and will continue to deal with


Great work
