No Going Back

in #poetry7 years ago

“Mama, can I be in your belly?”
What a simple question
With a heartbreaking answer
“No baby, you can’t go back in.”
A lesson we learn from day one
There is no going back
We can only move forward
Going back is not the same
Stagnation causes frustration
Not safety
The desire for safety
Can lead
To being unsafe
Move forward
Eyes clear
Heart open to love

You mustn't look back, only forward. Life is an on-going experience, and to want to retreat back into your past is a waste of the now. I really enjoyed this, thank you for sharing!

PS: If you are interested and have some spare time, I have some poetry on my blog too. :)

I'm so glad you enjoyed this! I followed you as well ☺️

kind of sad but thats life, theres no going back to the past we can only move on forward even if our sights is looking behind.

We can definitely learn from what's behind, but it's definitely important to move forward.
