You can never go back! (Free verse) by pennymarie
Can you ever turn back?
â¦â¦â¦â¦ the words that
Whirl from your lips harsh
And wicked they lurk
Aiming to cut, leaving dust
In your throat.
Can you ever turn back?
â¦â¦â¦..the grip of fear
Baring its teeth, spit flying
In between, searing your
Skin like acid rain.
Can you ever turn back?
â¦â¦â¦..just one minute
Hold your breath and
Scream, plummeting
Deeper still, should of
Said it , should of done
It.. But oh well next time.
Can you ever turn back?
â¦â¦â¦.. The wound
You have created, raging
river guts another fish to
The spin, jagged rocks
Splintered bones.
Can you ever turn back?
â¦.. just walk away
Leave your family
Leave your lover,
Leave your children
Say to hell.. I hope you die.
Can you ever turn back?
â¦â¦..your destiny
Wrong move, different grove
Should of danced to a different
tune.. Drums slamming way off beat.
Can you ever turn it forward?
⦠you know I know what is
Done is left done but still the
Memories are wasted .. By
Fantasies of pasted thoughts
And dreams.
But you can never go back!
to change it, to do things
Different, not say a word,
Out of fear, for in that minute
all sins wouldâ¦.wound,
Never walk away, and leave a
True destinyâ¦..
You know I know
itâs possible........
just get it right the first time!
