Let The Past Go Poem by Donna Saphier
Let The Past Go
Once upon a time, there was a woman so sad
She thought everything in her life was bad
She's such a nice woman with so much to give
But her past would torment her and she didn't want to live
She has lots of regrets when she looks back
But that can't be changed and that is that
She had slept around, she had been untrue
She had done most thing's that you shouldn't do
She was hurting so much, she was wriggled with guilt
What a bad reputation, she had built
Her name has been dragged right through the mud
Things she does now, she tries to do good
But the shame it shows upon her face
Her family think she is a walking disgrace
What could she do to put this right
She was crying, and helpless, and had run out of fight
She spoke to her friends, she asked their advice
They said what you've done, your now paying the price
But this will pass, because life goes on
And people also, will tend to move on
What hurt's you today, makes you stronger tomorrow
Forget your past as it only brings sorrow
Head up, stay strong, force a smile and move on
Because you know worrying won't change the outcome
Nobodies perfect, not no-one I know
So come on it's time to let your past go.
a poem of letting go of what's been done and moving on to a new life in the sun? ..........well written.
Donna, this heart-felt poem almost brought tears to my eyes. It reminded me of a friend that I had recently lost to cancer. She was very much like the heroine in your poem. She had lived a very tragic life, but was an optimist. And she brought a lot of joy and fun to her friends. She, like you, are heroines because you meet adversity head on and move on with your lives. That takes strength. And it takes courage to be able to share. I commend you. Congratulations on Poem Of The Day. Very well deserved.
That is what it is, the past. The worrying and the why we put ourselves through is heartache and wasted time. We realise this, sometimes, when it is too late. Thank You
'It's time to let your past go'! Thanks for sharing this poem with us.
Touching expressions in an insightful verse with rhythmic splendour. A sad but motivational piece of poetry. Thanks for sharing, Donna.
A strong poem of good advice. Regret is a difficult thing to come to terms with.
Congratulations! Seeing your poem which is beautifully presented about past. This is thought provoking as well as thoughtful sharing. This poem carries philosophy too.10
To rise above our disgrace and then to look down upon it, we see scars, but still pain, and how can this be? Because a good person truly regrets things and would change the past if he or she could......I see a good person in this poem of yours...and as regards the past my friend.....most of us feel the same way you do. A great poem and congratulations for poem of the day! 10+

To open up your emotions and write such a cathartic poem is great. It is a dilemma for all of us. We need to treasure the past but not to linger in it. Today is for living! Congratulations Donna.
