'The Steps' Poem by LOVE_AND HATE_ Lyle Ashwyn Holland

'The Steps'



These are the steps I climb... on a ladder,
With every letter and rhyme... I remember_

Sometimes we have to look back...
Burning bridges As we climb up,
Not to reminisce or to wish things were like before... But to rise UP! !

This isn't a story about a double life,
This a double story that no couple likes_

How ironic,
Those on a natural high despise chronic...
Therapy? Ooh yes I was on it,
You forgot? Guess you lost it,
With your mind and memory loss quick,
As you suffered a loss. When you got sick_

Because that is my past tonight,
No regrets alright? _

I Only look back,
to NOT repeat the same mistakes.
So I hope you're there to share the better future with me,
not to be my next mistake_


And As I'm stumbling from left to right,
I can only guess I'm right.

So until my afterlife,
These are my steps in life.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
The things we encounter in life. The bad things especially, creates a past of memries that we wouldn't want to remember. With friends and peer pressure around. The experiences and experiments it lead to... But sometimes we have to look back on where we came from to learn from our mistakes, to appreciate where we are at the monet, or simply just to see how far we've come and how far we still have to go towards a better future for ourselves... Sometimes we have to share these stories to prevent others from going through the same things and creating the same mistakes for themselves. So this is mine, and I hope you pay attention! And read between the lines to get a deeper detail of my two-sided story.
