Clinging To The Past ~ Part 1 Poem by Laura Kae

The past, so relentless, so unforgiving, scars my tender flesh.
Every new day, it leaves deep wounds in my back,
Never allowing me to forget.
When will daybreak seek my face?
When will the light beckon me from across the horizon,
Offering a mere glimmer of hope?
And at what time will fear ever elude me?
It stalks me in the depths of my soul,
Staring at my every move.
Ah, my love, life started so much sweeter than this.
But my return is ever ongoing.
