Past Life



Past hurt, deceitfulness, lies, disloyalty, false impressions, cheating, can make you feel like everyone is the same. When it's too good to be true, it really sounds insane. Missing that past life is definitely a mind blowing effect, that travels longer than a 5 foot chain. Unfortunately, It sucks that past hurt can affect the present. Sometimes, you don't even know it! Until, something triggers it without your consent. For some, the past stays relevant without any warning signs than you stay distant. Moving forward doesn't even seem like it will be consistent. This cycle, it just recycles with different people. You try and try to believe in something that may be great but it just seems illegal. Don't you wish you could fly away like a Bald Eagle. Finding out the worse part is they are all the definition of the word inveigle. Lead you on, to torture your soul, just to make themselves feel like they are made to be a Paralegal.  -Poetic ER
