I need to forget



I NEED TO FORGET

I need to forget what's gone, starting today
as for there is a new life beginning this day
must appreciate what's good that still remains
and let go of what has given me great pains
to look fore to what's coming next, my friend
I know now this is not going to be my life's end

I like to write all sorts of themes in my poetry. i mainly use rhyming poetry, some from personal experiences and some from characters i develop in my mind. i can be very strong with emotional use in my poetry. some have little twists, real life situations, humor and of course love, sadness, ect. more…
