RIP My Past
We all have moments in life that we wish memories do not come back or the same events not to repeat. If this happen, at one point of our journey, we will be free to move on, walk further and maybe, on a higher level.
————
RIP my past. I buried you
under a deep layer of dust.
I’m not lighting a candle
for farewell goodbye.
I’ll save it to light my path
into my bright future.
I adore my face
with sparkles in my eyes,
a happy smile,
And butterflies
weaved in my hair.
RIP my past.
Not because
you are bad or wrong,
But because
I need a new start,
new pulse
and new air to breath
free from rust and debris.
RIP my past.
I grew up, my childhood.
I grew up, my youth.
I am an adult.
The truth is, I have no regrets.
Let all mistakes
stay in the dark.
RIP memories of my old loves,
and welcome the new one
that will make me glow;
that will make me fly
on the wings of my dreams
and sing a song
with a written verse
that is whispered
from another distant universe.
