Running From The past

panicking

trying to catch my breath

running and not stopping this time

i cant look back

or it will attack

my past is here to take me back

i knew it wa a trap

no difference between you two

who would of knew

i set myself up for dissapointment

thinking

hoping you would change

it happens everytime

maybe its just me

was i being to naive

now i have to stop and think twice

afraid to get close to someone

because noones proved me wrong

my gaurds up

trying to catch my breath

will it be my last

running from the past

its time to forgive and forget

a memory from the past

comes to take me back

not going down that path again

i stop and hold my ground

im not going anywhere

because this is now and that was then

it doesnt matter now

i've made myself who i am

and even though it was a challenge

im proud of what i've become

because in the end

i. am. me.

Very enjoyable I must say. The stylization was good with it. Even better is that this poem can relate to a lot of people; running from their past they had, and happy with who they are now. I am one of them. Keep it up.

The past must be a reminder only. All of us make mistakes. A wise person don't repeat them. I like the story and the strong ending.
"im proud of what i've become
because in the end
i. am. me."
Thank you for the excellent poem.

Good job Hannah Marie. Some things in life are not looking back at. Though they have scarred our hearts and the memories they remain. We must move on and we must sustain. Down the road lieth more good to behold, more than the past and more precious than gold.
