Stuck in the past,
Never enjoying the day.
Wondering what will happen tomorrow,
When its 10 hours away.
Tripping over my own two feet,
Stumbling to the ground.
Locked inside the memories,
Never to be found.
I so desperately want to hold on,
To the things that are now changed.
I dont want to let go,
To my life thats been re-arranged.
I'm still stuck in my 15 year old self,
I guess 16 just doesnt do..
All i want is a sense of direction,
Instead i just fall over all of you.
I have to get over myself,
Move on to a better day.
Its so hard when you re-live your past,
In every imaginable way.
Time doesnt stop for pity,
The world turns reguardless of your tears.
Life moves on with their everyday life,
The sun will rise reguardless of your fears.

this piece is very true and very beautiful, it is too easy sometimes to wallow in the past and let it blind you to the possiblities of the future.  keep posting your work

Sometimes, the things that go unsaid are the only things worth hearing.

This was a very good piece, as usual. I haven't been around in  a while. It's good to see things haven't changed

I completely agree with banbury.

"Life moves on with their everyday life,
The sun will rise reguardless of your fears."

That is so true.  This is a beautiful piece... it's refreshing to see a positive poem in PIP.  You have a lot of insights that I love.
Very well done, Michele!  Looking forward to more...
