Poetry: My painful past

by Royce Radcliffe

Created on: April 14, 2009

My past is more pain than anything

hopes teased, built up and then crashed from searing heights

when I think of my memories

there are few that don't still have bite.

Annihilation of the dream

I have felt it a thousand times

and the realization that people are never what they seem

has cut me apart once at a time like the sharpest knife.

So yes,my past is pain

but that just makes me stronger

I will make the same mistakes no longer

baptised in such fire, more powerful than ever the soul remains.
