Avoid Those Haunting Pasts.-by- Matthew F. Blowers III
When your past comes
back to haunt you
and you know that
you don’t want to
embrace it’s painful memories
with tomorrows filled
with sorrows
and all that you have left to borrow
is your present day
that stretches onward endlessly.
Close your eyes
let your soul drift
beyond the past and future rifts
find some happier point in time
to help your spirit lift
fate can be a fickle beast
gifting more when you have least
around the corner waits a feast
of newfound love and peace.
I had a friend who chose
to end his life
when his wife took his kids away
so he drank himself to death
thinking he’d make her pay.
but his kids grew up without him
I think of all the things he missed
Birthday’s Christmases, first proms
and graduation days.
while he rotted in a grave…….
So close your eyes
let your soul drift
beyond the past and future rifts
find some happier point in time
to help your spirit lift
fate can be a fickle beast
gifting you more when you have least
around the corner waits a feast
of newfound love and peace
It’s a simple way to beat
depression bringing you defeat
and if the dead could talk
they’d tell you
life is far too sweet.
The suicidal stay behind
watching the life they missed unwind
without their input and they find
far too much joy that they left behind
Far too much joy that they left behind
