Peace With The Past 

Anthony6 Comments

The days roll by 

One after the other

Take pause and sigh.

–

Uncertainty like no other

Haunts us inside 

Like a firmer friend or lover.

–

Give up your pride

Eat some humble pie

And go for a ride.

–

Each nanosecond rolls by

An eternity in each 

Wishing and be could fly.

–

Placing hardships out of reach

Landing upon happier times

One some warm sandy beach.

–

We never stop paying for past crimes

Punishing ourselves for those mistakes

Get what we deserve on karmic lines.

–

So take all those breaks 

Parlay them into happiness 

And avoid all the flakes.

–

Finally you can impress 

Upon yourself 

Gentle peacefulness…
