Moving forward without looking back is hard,
You look back at the old memories in longing,
But are also excited about the new ones,
Memories are eternal,
The good ones and the bad ones,
All the times you cried,
All the times you laughed,
All the times you lied,
All the times you yelled,
All the times you shared,
All the times you cared,
They will always be unforgettable,
They will always be unreplaceable,
Coming back to where you came from,
May feel like you’re taking one step back,
But you are actually moving one step forward,
The past is the past,
The future is the future,
But sometimes your past is what helps your future,
Like when you go back to where your past started.
I loved how the last line of your poem gave a lasting, final expression and tied the poem together.
ReplyDeleteI really like how you used repetition in your poem and tied the ending to back to the beginning.
