Analysis of The Past
I try hard not to think
But the memories
Of my past are
Bitter, sad, painful
And the failure of my life
That attack my mind and heart
And influence me that
I cannot help to stop
The tears in my eyes
That flow through my cheeks
And fall, on the ground
And absorb in the clay
I stay silent
With my wounded desires
And I am living with that
Without any expectations
