Yesterday you ignored me <br />Today you think of me <br />Years ago, you cursed me, backbite me <br />Today I’m called a good person <br />Months ago, I was rejected for no clear reasons <br />Today you say if I had known, I would have accepted you <br />Weeks ago, I cried out my heart longing to befriend you <br />Today tears are flowing, longing to see me, to feel my presence, to befriend me, to hear at least my breath… <br /> <br />Why when it’s too late you will regret <br />Why regret when you could think <br /> <br />I was someone alone with myself and in crowd of people <br />You would raise your eyes when I’m falling into ruins, when I wrongly act <br />You would ignore me when I do good <br />Why you have power to hurt when I’m here <br />And the present would fade such power into tears, into regrets when I’m no more <br />Why you would call my name when a freezed air separate us now <br /> <br />Please don’t cry now… <br />Please don’t hurt my memory… <br />Please don’t long to see me now… <br /> <br />I want to return back and cry with you to pacify you <br />Today I’m no more in your world; I see how important I am to you <br />I want to return back now but it’s too late <br /> <br />A last word….. <br />Keep your feelings till we meet again <br />Let me go now… Peacefully At Least… To my new abode <br />Don’t let me miss you now… <br />My time has come suddenly, but the clock has not yet stopped for you <br /> <br />You could not love me when I was here; All you can do now is to learn how to love others in your world now…<br /><br />Salimah Nubee<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-past-is-the-past-await-for-the-future/
