This is a poem I wrote err... A few months ago. I like it, but thoughts would be good :)
Forever The Past

Each always collapsing
Apart from the inside
Falling away from the edge to the soft side

Drowning from dreaming
Hopes gone too high
Believing and wishing and wondering why
Needing forever
When forever has gone
However it’s needed, forever is now

The insomniac waits
Awaiting something new
Something without boundaries
Something Unlike the past

Unlike past. Past.
Lost in past.
Trapped in forever when forever is now
Realising too late forever is gone
Gone is forever, forever.

Always forever trapped in the past
Past leading forever, movement away too fast

Losing from falling
Falling apart
Falling apart in your hands on the edge
Of the cliff where we stood
And we waited for something, for something new.
To fall.

Wishing. They wish for you.
It bleeds into their psyche and changes their thoughts.
Patterns. Thought patterns.
Patterns of behaviour. Life rhythm, it’s gone.
Taken their life rhythm.
You don’t even know.

Believe in yourself, above all else.
See to the future, placed them high on your shelf.
Another notch in your bedpost
Another broken heart to call
Another diamond stopped shining
It broke from the fall.

Deep in the past and exploring the present
Makes sense in the now and very viewed different
We all like to think mistakes are to learn from
It’s instead been proved in the world we repeat them
Repeat and repeat and repeat them again
Once all each found our mistake, take a tight grasp
It’s going to be with you around for a long time

Falling away from the edge to the soft side
Bleeding our lives into someone else’s hands
Hope and dreams and drowning each memory
Crushing reality, creating more spark.

Forever is lost in the past that once moved
Once moved a person to dream of a future
A future that’s present and not like a dream
Because forever once pictured has turned into now
And the forever once wanted has gone and
Forever the past.
