The Past
The Past can be painful
It can also be dull,
The past is your scar
It is who you are.
Your past can be happy,
It can also be sad,
It’s almost like a two-faced mask.
Appreciate your past, it can be your future,
Appreciate your present,
In fact, it can be your teacher
Don’t judge anyone
Without knowing their past,
Because the chance you get to see them,
Can be your last.
Angels can be devils, you see
But before hating them
Ask why they be.
Learn from your past,
be better, not bitter
if the rose wither,
tell them that I'm forever.
Your past can hurt,
So just be alert, that it can’t be revert
You can’t convert it to something else.
You past is your present
Your present is your future
Do what you want and
Don’t regret it later.

I was inspired to write this poem because I have seen through different media such as movie and articles. People sometimes regret there past and often in life, we are always living in the past that we forget to remember how beautiful the present is.
