Dear Past, Present and My Dear Future

Dear Past, Present and My Dear Future
Wearing a coat
Or call it an anorak
Through the rain he takes his steps
And on the road he walks
A hat to cover his head
Like an armored personnel
He is dressed
Anodized from the loneliness in his pumping flesh
It beats even now
It used to beat then
With hopes for it to keep beating
Till his soul sees a dead end
He walks
Inside a shell he used to hide
But now he breaks it
And takes a step ahead
Humiliating his past
And
Silently announcing life’s rebirth
By his anodyne walk
He walks and walks
To the mountain up ahead
He stands at the foot and
Looks back at the far end
He then says with a
Smirk on his face
“Now it’s time”
And then breaks into a smile
Hoping for the best.
Before he walk
Any further ahead
He says to himself
“Dear past…. I will miss you
but its fare well…….
Dear present …do know
Its happiness if you think
And sorrow if you think
And
Oh Dearest future…
I know not what you bring
For me
But I hope your decision to be best
And I know I will do my best
A test you will take
Of my fate
My patience
My knowledge
And my ways…
But help me to choose right
And help me to correct
My dear past and change the fate I fear
No more of that I shall suffer
For I feel I am in good hands and hoping that’s true…”
He walks again up the mountain and by this the rain stops
No fear, not scared for he believes in a
Bright future and
So does the sun shine above…
