Past, Present, Future

Past haunts the present,
 Past lives in the future.
 It crosses paths with what’s to come,
 Shows its face when you don’t expect.
 Casts its shadow when you think you escaped,
 mistakes felt, feelings lived through.
 Choices uncovered comes back to you,
 No point to run or hide from what’s left,
 It will be beside the secrets you kept.
 It will follow filling the hollow
 spaces and places that mind hides and erases.
 Heart beating rhythm, time won’t forgive them,
 Mistakes, choices and old lost voices,
 Conciseness burning and life keeps on turning
