Walking backwards

Walking backwards

A Poem by Fernando Dardón
"

there are sometimes that we wish we could look forward, and to look good memories, as if doing so we could live them again.

"
A step that leads to the past,
is all I wish I had.
Or some seed to harvest,
that grows under the ground.

If only sinners cried,
and begged for forgiveness.
But their hearts only starve,
cause they have some illness.

Maybe if I step back,
my watch will turn backwards,
to turn brightness into darkness,
and sunset into sunrise.

Maybe, our lifes should have been
as our pictures on the phone,
a non motion static moment,
eternally happy for sure.

A heart that beats inwards,
to suck all that blood.
Consumed by our body
that disturbs our soul.

If only memories were fuel
and our dreams a time machine.
We could step back from now,
go somewhere called "Yesterday".

Sinners have hurt us so much.
And I still feel like hoping
that somehow I will find
How to look behind.

Now do not take this personal, I felt this was a bit pushed (not like some one with 22 items in a 12 item check out) But i felt like there was more, some holding back. It was good but you can make it great!

thank you very much!! I appreciate your review :D
This is so sweet and sad. You are a very good writer. This reminds me of that movie Source Code. If you are going to extend it, I suggest adding more about specifically what you want to look behind at like an old childhood memory or something. Thank you so much for sharing this with me :)
