Shadow of the Past

There I sit in a gloomy corner,

With nothing to do,

Thoughts take me forward,

No, that’s not true.

Racing in the past,

I close my eyes for the moment,

I still remember what had happened,

At that life changing event.

Now you are gone,

And so is your endearing presence,

All I can do now,

Is reminisce your essence.

The tap rouses me,

Brings me back to reality,

I wish you had never happened,

It is just sadness now, in totality.

I slip in the mush,

Back to your thoughts,

I wish you’d understood me when,

I said I love you lots.

Legs heavy like lead,

I try to stand,

The past pulls me back,

But the future doesn’t give me a hand.
