Past

Past - we all have a past , but what matters most is how many of us still live in the shadows of our past?

This poem was written for a very spl friend of mine to whom I just wanted to say let go of his past and live for his present and future .

The past holds many secrets
better left untold ,
For to bring them to the present
its bitterness unfolds.

The memories we cherish
may be tarnished by its gloom,
Its darkness and its sorrow
is to what we are doomed.

There is no need to relive the past
for to do so is in vain,
Yesterday's gone,today is here
why relive the pain ?

Forget the past as you turn away
and wish it the farewell
For no longer in your past
will your present dwell ......
