When moving forward one must look back, lest they risk the chance of moving backwards.


You can’t write a poem about yourself

 

At least that’s what they told me

 

Selfish words are not to be heard

 

At least that’s what they told me

 

Your pain, your joy
Your old childhood toys
Are only for you to keep

 

You can’t write a poem about yourself

 

At least that’s what they told me
