buried happiness

Battle between the past nd future

I'm so lost in the past
It affects who I am today
But we all know,
We all know the past matters.
But this isn't about the past
This is about the insecure person I am
I can't help but sleep with the past.

I'm so scared of the future
I can hardly live now
But we all know...
We all know the future matters
No matter how unclear it looks
But this isn't about the future
This is about the stupid person I am
I can't help but dine with the future.

So I push people away
Because they don't meet the illusions in my head
And now I'm stuck
Stuck with these tears
My pen
Book
And buried happiness

Having faith in yourself and all of your decisions matter. Add God to those steps helped me a lot. Valentine

Lovely writing. A wise person once said
"Don't dwell in the past, don't dream of the future but concentrate the mind on the present moment and make the best out of it."

Easy to find peace and safety in the pen and the paper. I liked the honest tone leading to the strong ending. Writing is a good release. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.
