The Past...

Looking back on the things you've done;
Feelings come flooding back.
The happiness, the joy, the good times;
Seems as though they've come and gone, figures of your imagination.

Looking back on the things you've done;
Feelings come flooding back.
The hurt, the pain, the sorrow.
Seems as though they're here to stay, wishing they weren't real.

As I look back on what's been done;
Feelings come flooding back.
The good times,the bad ones,the happiness,sadness,the hurt & the pain.
I can't allow them to hold me, I have to move on somehow.

I feel the same is true for you;
This will take time I know.
No matter how long it takes, I will wait.
As I look at you, I see now,not then...the present and the future,not the past.

Good poem - It reminds me of one that I read the other day called "Photographs" or something of that sort.  Memories both good and bad, once all remembered make you sad because they are gone!!

Melz!!

Yeah, this reminds me of "photographs" too. I liked the meaning behind this and the positivity in the end. Good read.

This was good niceguy. Nice to see you back posting!
