DON’T LOOK BACK

Gotta stop looking back
Stop thinking about the past
Too much pain and heartache
Don’t let the torment last.

You made it through the gauntlet 
Yes, you did… you persevered 
Unable to destroy you
You made it, you are here.

They were evil , yes…. demonic
What they did was simply wrong
You hung on, you found your way
Held your ground , showed them you’re strong.

Toxic , cruel , unyielding
Always said it was your fault
But, you know they’re  dishonest
Just listen to them talk. 

Slinging mud, their specialty 
Attempts to change the narrative
Anything to put you down
Anything to destroy your character.

But slow and steady wins the race
Keep going , you’re doing fine
Don’t let their anger bother you
Remain compassionate and kind.
