The Past Lives On Poem

The Past Lives On

The Past Lives On

13 March 2016

Louis Vincent Balbi

My seeing the effects today 
of the actions of our past, 
led you to complain, 
“Stop living in the past.”

I do not live in the past 
but the past lives in me.

The past lives in all of us, 
whether we accept it or not.

Our children are proof 
of that, thanks to us.

God bless them.

God help them.
