Not Today

It’s all in the past,

Some would say;

Careful not to make it last,

The curse may hunt one like a prey;

Just hope that day is not today.

Is it however so really,

Perhaps we may never know;

The reason behind those events truly,

Dig too deep and it’ll make your mind blow;

Making today more miserable than the days to follow.

Damage to a broken mind may well be mended,

It is the broken heart which is tricky;

As even when constant care has been tended,

We fall more often than be offended,

And rarely see the broken being picky.

It’s best to let the past be a testament,

To a pattern or event of folly,

Forbidden from being repeated only for your betterment;

Reminisced more so in memory of the person you once got to be,

For it isn’t a sin to conjure up this forsaken melancholy.
