Looking Back Poem by Daniel Aristotle Potts

I'm gone
Nothing prepares
For what is after
But looking back
I should have known better
Because it's always darker
Right before the dawn
But looking back
I should have known better
I should have stayed awake
And weathered the storm
That was raging in me
But looking back
I should have known better
Nothings as bad as death
So it would seem
But looking back
I should have known better
Suicide wasn't the answer
Oh I wish I could….
Look back
