the past
The past takes power over your bones,
Leaves you boneless,
With dead skin,
Carrying memories that melted into your brain,
And transmitted into your organs,
Blood flowing but it seemed to stop,
cause you stopped when you let your memories keep you from living,
Let go of the past,
cause that’s exactly what it is,
The past,
It’s hard I know,
But you got to live in the present,
So you can see the light that shines,
In the present,
On your present when your present,
Your a gift but you can’t see that,
When your still opening the same one you got when you were eight,
Throw it away,
Open a new one,
It’s waiting with a red ribbon,
Surprise,
Open the present in the present,
In the box you’ll see yourself waiting to come out.
