past - Blackout Poetry Notes

Captain

Fate is the captain behind
the steering wheel
in past narration and tales
of magic.

As far as I could see,
my life is
a waiting game,
the wheels of anxiety
focus all my attention
on the past.

The past is
just a moment in time;
move toward
a brighter future.

We couldn't undo the past,
it was true.
You're just afraid
you did not know how to forget
that place
in your life.

Spend time on the good
and keep going
past those old hurts.
I want to be in peace with
a clean slate.

He was so beautiful,
the feeling of having come home grew
and past rejection
did abate.

We must decide
every minute is valuable.
Acknowledge the good,
yet rest to recover from the emotion
of the past.
