Best Put It Behind Poems
All this baggage
I would love
To put it behind me
What this girl wouldn't give
To trade it
For some junk in the trunk

For Broken Wings'
"Could You, Please"
No Matter How Many Times I Slip Up
You Never Give Up, No Not On Me
I Cry With All My Might
And Its Almost Like You See
Yet It Doesnt Bother You
That Im Weak
You Dont Seem
To Forget Me
No Matter How Low I Am
You Tell Me That Im Strong
Had Faith In Me All Along
Even When I Did That Stuff
That Stuff That Hurt So Bad
You Told Me I Could Beat It
Somehow You Never Seemed Mad
And Now You Try, To Just Stop And Say Hello
Don't Worry Your Not Forgotten To Me Either
Oh No, Oh No, Oh No
'Cuss When I Was Weak
Your Words Gave Me Strength
When I Was Down
You Somehow Restored My Faith
When I Was Low
You Helped My Hope
That I Would Be Okay
Reminded Me That I Wasnt Forgotten
Not By Thee, And
Ill Make It Somewhere One Day
'Cuss I Dont Have To Give Up
Not Like I Use To
And I Can Stand Tall
Proud, Despite What I Use To Do
We All Have Our Past
But Theirs A Reason For That
So That We Can Create A Future
Even If The Past Cant Be Forgotten Now
I Can Put It Behind Me
You Helped Me To See
Life Truly
And Forever Ill Be
A Friend To Thee
Thank You For Helping Me
Forgotten
You'll Never Be

Dedicated To My Good Friend Gary La'Buda
Always An Inspiration Peace
Diamonds, rubies, and amethysts danced last night in my dreams,
Beautiful, sparkling gifts from my husband that were supreme.
For 30 years each custom piece was planned by him with care,
And when he surprised me with it I thought I was walking on air.
I remember each piece he gave to me and the occasion.
Our anniversary, birthday, and Christmas was a big celebration.
They were wonderful years, but the marriage did not last.
We lost that perfect love that had been unsurpassed.
The split was acrimonious, and it became the divorce from hell.
Everything had to be divided, and my jewelry I was forced to sell.
The day I brought all my jewelry to be sold I did not shed a tear
For all the pieces given to me with love I held so dear.
When I left my wedding ring that day, I felt lost and forsaken.
But I have thought very little since about my jewelry that was taken.
It is over and done, and I have tried to put it behind.
But I awakened with tears on my pillow, thinking of a gift so kind.
One Christmas Eve he gave me a gorgeous diamond heart necklace.
When I saw it I was in awe and breathless.
It made me cry in my dream to see the love in his eyes.
His excitement and joy was worth far more than the prize.
I had to sit through it all
the conversation that was inevitable
What they did
Where they went
What they saw...
My brother and his wife
On the their expensive trip to see Roger Federer in the flesh
My husband and daughter
On a trip joining work with sightseeing
And then there was me....
I listened...
Big Ben and its imposing height
Parliament's alluring might
Pics there at Downing street
Fish and chips, a tasty treat
Outside Westminster Abbey
The Thames in its flowing glory
London Bridge, Trafalgar square
Harrods and all the goodies there
The Shard and the tennis match
Souvenirs that were a catch
Brollies forgotten here and there
Poppies bobbing everywhere
The Palace and the Rosetta stone
Red booths housing telephones
Tussaud's latest entries
Baker Street and revelries
All this, and so much more
Stories of the trip...galore
I sat and listened to it all
Saw even more pics
In my heart a twisted ache
My teaching schedule and other things
Made me stay back home
It didn't make this night easier
I thought of all I'd missed
Sure, I'd been to London years ago
But somehow...this still hurt
I'd been left behind
The night blissfully came to an end
And here am I...writing this
with London in my mind
"London, BABY!"
Not for me...
Eileen Manassian
Yup....I'm having a pity party. Didn't go to London with the fam. I was all by my lonesome! I'm happy my daughter and husband got to see the sights. We'd been there when Shereen was six or seven, but now at twenty, she could appreciate it all more. It still hurts a little that I couldn't go along. Now all the talk is done...and I can put it behind me, till the day I go to London and experience it on my OWN! ;)
im the one you let get away i cared for you alot you dared to me walk away your loss my im the one boss your gone im done lets put it behind your gone im done.
why do you have to leave now?
denial has been my pill
and collapse seem inevitable
if I stop.
How can I hold time responsible for this?
Is there a way to put it behind bars?
I stand as a helpless kitten
watching its mother taken for sale
I weep as a Nation
whose King is going captive
to foreign lands.
And like a young chick
fatally exposed to flying Eagles.
My mind says its for good
but my heart refuses to comprehend.
As true as you are climbing
up the ladder,
my feelings had wished;
that ladder should be my presence.
How can I recover from the smiles
you manufacture in me
from no raw materials?
Who can replace the immense kindness
you shower
as a default to your being?
You've now created my days
of sad songs
sang without sounds nor instruments.
My days are now getting longer
and my nights darker than darkness.
Memories of you are life itself
and no matter how I try
your absence entails
the removal of my Life's support.
Leaving me,
has caused the most delicious of meals
and the finest materials
of silk, cotton and polyesthers
all to turn my taste and appetite sour.
When will I ever see you friend?
Am I really going to meet you there?
Or is this the end of our world?
You leave me with many questions
and a great deal of uncertainty.
Swear to me my dear
make me this promise
and please be faithful to your Oath.
That though apart,
we will always be together.
That my pain now, is worth it
and at the end we will come back
and be re-united
in a much more intense
and unshakable bond.
I greatly weep
as I say goodbye
cos it is difficult doing it,
while looking into your eyes.
GOOD BYE FRIEND!
The cock's clarion call,
The sparrow's proclamation,
The gradual total overthrow of darkness,
Welcome morning!
Light? Of hope or illusion?
A twenty-four-wheeled vehicle,
What a relief it's thundered and roared past,
Past to return no more,
It's passengers' sorrows and bitterness,
Conductor's disappointment.
Why peer into the darkness?
Why sniff the bitter trail of that doomed vehicle?
Love choking?
Ah!
Put it behind you!
It's a new bright promising day,
Flag down the vehicle of hope,
Hop in for a jolly critical ride,
Put on the seatbelt of courage, hardwork and caution,
Your dreamland is your destination.
I got too much emotion, too much pain.
I try to stay strong to keep myself sane.
I put on a mask with a fake smile and lie,
I'm wearing a "stay strong" disguise.
Pent up aggression, pent up sorrow,
How do i make it and see tomorrow?
I have so many secrets and burdens,
they're under the surface and hidden.
I dont know what to do anymore,
I dont know what to believe.
i cant live this battle this war,
this self hatred.... these lies I've made for me.
Pent up aggression, pent up sorrow,
How do i make it and see tomorrow?
I have so many secrets and burdens,
they're under the surface and hidden.
My whole world just spins round and round.
I put it behind me, but it comes back and bites me.
I'm fallin down,yet my past just haunts me.
Memories are burned in my head,
I dont want to remember this,... again.
I got too much emotion, too much pain.
I try to stay strong to keep myself sane.
I put on a mask with a fake smile and lie,
I'm wearing a "stay strong" disguise.
I dont know what to do anymore,
I dont know what to believe.
i cant live this battle this war,
this self hatred.... these lies I've made for me.
In guiltless slumber she dreams
The stillness of night is broken
Cold hands smother her screams
As reassuring words are spoken
Feeling safe she lets down her guard
His hands touch private places
Overpowered though fighting hard
Her innocence he defaces
With daylight comes the shame
That she's done something wrong
To scared to point or blame
In silence she goes along
Shadows make regular calls
As nights turn into years
She escapes through a hole in the wall
Followed by darkened fears
She takes to sleeping days
Night is not her friend
Her past is never raised
Memories are suppressed within
She goes on with her life
One day she meets a man
Soon becomes his wife
And yields to his demands
But time does not forget
Marriage is a constant reminder
It fails miserably in regret
She just can't put it behind her
an original poem by Daniel Turner
As i look at moms dead body , i wonder what now
Do cry about her everyday till i can't take no more
Or do i forget her and move on with life
Do i open up to someone about how i feel
Do i keep it all in and push everyone away
Put it behind the wall i built years ago with other problems
And hope it don't break.
As i keep pondering on it i say goodbye to my loved ones
Really, no one knows exactly what to do now
Just live each day likes its your last
From the heart these words are sown
Borrowed from the word and on loan
Follow along as you will read
In turn these rhymes your soul they’ll feed
In an attempt to pen like Cowper and Knox
And share these thoughts from a bag of rocks
And type them in line perfect and straight
About the Beatitudes for now here’s eight.
The first on the list as we seek and dive
Starting in Matthew and in chapter five
Regarding the nature of poor in spirit
Is about serving others if you can hear it
Secondly lives have been shattered and torn
Our sins hurt others and we neglect to mourn
We fail to extend a recompense
As we rationalize our odious offense
Next is the call and nature of the meek
But do not confuse it does not mean weak
It suggest to be gently, courteous and kind
But the world disregards and put it behind
Where are those who hunger and thirst
To bring about justice for those dispersed
In what ways can we help those in need
And help the poor and those who bleed
Mercy it appears to not even exist
Men wage war with a hard clenched fist
Grace is grounded in total forgiveness
Without it our souls die in darkest sickness
And out of the heart the mouth dost speak
But the pure in heart and those who seek
With the motives of the mind brought to light
Are those who shine like stars burning bright
Fortunate are the peacemakers in the land
That make amends and lower their hands
It is never ever wise for us to take delight
In those who would prefer to start a fight
Finally these attitudes come with a twist
Expect to be persecuted but don’t resist
Challenge the world and the system
This lyric came from the Kings true wisdom
By:beardedJarhead
Click goes the lock on the door
Keys thrown on the table
Light flicked on
Waitress uniform
Taken off
Life, taken on
I can’t sustain myself
On silk charades and mental games
Memories to make, are too far away
The best I can do, is bottle it up and put it behind a mirror
Like prescription medicine too potent
For this tiny frame
The Sweetest Drug
I’ve ever had
Is the bitter pill of you
I’ve got a problem
And I
don’t
know
what
to
do
about
it
Spending half the night
Fishing metaphors out of buckets
To explain to him
How strong
This addiction
Will become
He’s my sweetest drug
Constantly on my mind
I can’t get anything done
When a part of him isn’t in my system
These feelings multiply
Every second that he’s gone
Baby, you..
Have you any idea?
My affliction
Won’t let me live
I get so confused
Simply put
When I’m in bed, alone
Shadows play on the wall
Telling stories I refuse to repeat
My eyes see a world of eternal clichés
Restless legs and fluttering eyelashes
From dusk til dawn
Painted acrylic emotions jaded
Spill down around my waist
My logic, is gone
I know I should stay away from it
It’s no good for me
But I find myself running to the medicine cabinet
Frantically searching
Because
The Sweetest Drug
I’ve ever had
Is the bitter pill of you
Tonight we enjoy this forbidden feeling
Maybe a little more damage is what we need to start healing
Tonight nothing can go wrong
Every melody on earth is our perfect song
Today we forget about tomorrow and yesterday
Today we forget that there's a price to pay
Tonight we enjoy this so we can put it behind
Cause until we kiss you'll be on my mind
How do you move on,
Move on after the one you devoted you'r life to is no longer there.
How do you pull that life back together,
How do you put it behind you.
Never forget,
I could never,would never forget,
The love for her runs to strong.
The emotions put me beside myself,
The tears never stopping.
The thoughts of us together and now being apart,
The endless pain in my heart yearning for her touch,
But knowing her touch will no longer be there.
The thought of no longer holding her,
The worries of her illness and pain.
The thoughts of never loving again,
and always being........alone.
It Is usually a given
Prices will always rise
Like invading oil-rich countries
Over the most ridiculous lies
But there was no protest
The Bible says they're bad people
And now our wholesale murder
Has not saved one wooden nickel
So to my surprise
TV prices begin to drop?
There would be a revolution
To protect our digital God
Since truth is not truth
Until it is seen on the screen
Even God cannot rival
The truth of this new TV
It is quite a simple gadget
And so cheap to make
It has not even one circuit
And no warranty to take
It has only one wire
Making it easy to sell em
You put it behind your head
And screw it into your cerebellum
