Past Or Future?

By AverageStatistic

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

What am I going to do, When the future comes my way? When the past is easily forgotten- What am I going to say? When all the friends have drifted, Where then will I go? When all the people run so far, Who then will I know? When expectations are too high, Who then can I trust? I know that I have changed myself, It's this life of mine I lust. When the past starts dragging me down, and I'm over-maturing my peers, When I think about the adolescent times, That have disappeared over the years. I remember all those days I used to laugh so hard, But now I barely smile. It's hard to live this depressing life, When nothing seems worth-while. I don't want to wait anymore, For those people to leave my side. That time will come far too soon, And I'll have no place else to hide. How am I going to react, When this all goes by so fast? What am I going to say to myself, When I know I'm living in the past?Enjoy everyone... have a wonderful day/night/life Written March 12th, 2002 © on Mar 12 2002 11:33 AM PST   10 • 0
