Trying to follow in the footsteps of the person i once was, <br />i look around and walk around trying to find my cause <br />I look at the world and it looks back at me, <br />my eyes are open but i cannot see, what the future holds for me <br />I walk forward but my future turns into my yesterday, <br />i walk backward but my yesterday turns into my tomorrow, <br />i stand still and my today turns into my past <br /> <br />What is left for me to do? <br />If i walk beside you, i'll fall off the road <br />if i walk behind you, you'll walk away <br />if i walk infront of you, i'll get lost <br />I wanna take your hand but your hand seems busy <br />i wanna take your arm but your arm is missing <br />i wanna take your heart but your heart is already taken <br /> <br />So tell me what to do <br />what point i have to prove <br />what line i have to cross <br />what mountain should i move <br />before i can finally get to your heart <br /> <br />Should i think of the love we shared or the war we declared? <br /> <br />I walk forward into yesterday <br />i walk back into tomorrow <br />i run away from today <br />but my past still stays the same <br /> <br />If i took your hand would you still be able to grab me? <br />If i took your arm would you still be able to hold me? <br />If i took your heart would you still be able to love me? <br /> <br />If my past was my tomorrow <br />and my yesterday my today <br />would we still be together <br />or would my past still be in the way?<br /><br />Carike Klokow<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/my-past-my-yesterday/
