Looking Back At Memories

We were having fun, Dancing and laughing in the sun When we stop to look back, When our pasts smacked us on our backs We split up in the woods, And in every tree Stood a memory, One great one that breaks out our anger We kept on looking out for danger and we see a stranger Looking at me and laughing at you, The wind blew him to dust And replaced stood a note and a rusted key We saw the sea and a rabbit having tea, I realized what these where But then the hare couldn't stare at nothing more, But you and me A Fire tree wrapped around me, I caught fire But I didn't feel any hellfire, Only to admire the flames And to smile, while the tree turned to ashes, While the flash of the past disappeared And we were sent back to the present, You didn't remember and I had to explain While I couldn't contain, All the secrets I had to keep And I guess that's what happens when you look in the past...

The poem is based on the memories you have in life as you can see but it also shows you what else there is to it. If you have someone that's makes you feel free, then you should never let anything in your past take what you have now...
