PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

It's a tough pill to swallow

coming to terms with my shadows.

The ghosts of my past haunt me

and entrap me in my old patterns. 

I have to live with myself

and the mistakes I've made.

But I shouldn't let them control 

my life and make me a slave. 

While negativity once ruled me,

I can face tomorrow with hope.

I can look forward to a future

brimming with brilliant possibility.
