Past, Present, and Future Me.

By dalphon

 Giving thought
To what was sought,
My mind did wander astray.

And found it's feet
Upon the streets,
Of yore and yesterday.

With intentions the best,
my youthful quest,
still led me into dismay.

Lost and found,
Today I'm bound,
And forever, here, will stay.

Will pursuing my dreams,
of superfluous things,
find me in disarray?

Tomorrow you'll see,
That I shall be,
no one I am today.

    Getting lost in the past is easy. Getting your head out of the past and into the here and now is a difficult task. Thank you for the read. I can relate.

    thank you very much! I have went through a lot of change recently and have been wondering how my past ambitions led me to where I am, and to where my current goals may lead me...
