Yesterday Poem by Lily Law

Yesterday

Rating: 4.4


Yesterday,
A string had broken from my left hand,
A string that had bound me for a long time,
That had became one with my flesh.
That had became one with my soul.

The pain was unbearable,
The freedom was sweet,
But the consequences were undefined.

Yesterday,
I ran to the valley,
A valley of beauty,
A valley of hope.

But as I stare at it,
I felt its emptiness,
As I walked by,
I sense its coldness,
As I touched the earth,
I felt its fear.

Yesterday,
It is the end of everything,
And the beginning of the ending.
