Life is like living in a body of water, you'll never what you'll find or discover if you just dive a little deeper.


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.
