as I walk towards my future,
I can’t help but trip over my past
cracks in my street and knives in my back
I need to get through this, and fast
so I introduce you to memory lane
a destination in my mind
to forgive, forget and maybe achieve
personal growth of some kind
while the past is behind me,
my thoughts are still active
engulfing each idea I have
and spewing out the unattractive
my cycle stays vicious
but I’m trying to break it
pouring my heart out on paper
we’ll see if I can take it
