The Past I Left Behind Poem by Kasi Navadomskis

I looked into my past
And all that wouldn’t last
I noticed a lot of things
That I used to look past
I saw that faces
Of the one’s that I love
And saw those of the others
Who have strayed and gone afar.
I could see all the ears
That I fried every night
I could see the look of pain
The pain in my eyes…
Now here I stand
With u by my side
Our future ahead of us
I can no longer hide.
That hole of black darkness
I still feel it around me
It won’t seem to let me go
But that is just something u won’t ever know
So I go on ahead
U take me by the hand
U say you’ll be here
Right by my side
Even when I cry
You promise me this
You’ll always be here and
Never leave my side.
