'twas the past...

Twas a year gone by.
She wondered silently.
Time flying quickly.
Memories fading quietly.
What shall remain?
Of what had passed.
You never think about it.
Said an old adage.
Her past was her baggage.
Unable for her to let go.
The good always flies by.
The bad rears its shadow.
The haunting shadow,
That doesn't dim with light,
That burns eternally in the dark.
Sparks of the afterglow,
Is felt at this very moment....
She keeps walking,
She keeps living.
She tries to change.
She plays the present.
But the rewind button,
Always in control.
Keeps pausing to the moments,
That can never be fast forwarded.
Heart of hearts she yearns,
To live in the present,
even with the shadow haunting.
Is there anybody to show the way?
Or is she just a lost soul,
Without an anchor in sight.
'Twas her past remains,
Even if a year goes by.

  1. Alas, similar feelings I share
    And the past seems just as today, it were
    I relive the glory, pain and anguish in pack
    And decide to block the clock turning back

    Before my heart breaks again
    Cos 'twas, a few years of pain
    The future is bleak, possibilities aplenty
    Out of which all but one bears no entry

    Get away from the past tense and the future tense
    Rewind and fast forward hath not a defence
    The present presents the real present!
    And enjoy the life that god has sent...

    What happened happened for good
    What is going to happen will happen for good
    What is happening is happening for good
    But lets not worry about the first two for good :)
