A Portrait of the Past

Folder: 
Thoughts on Life

It’s strange how

the past can seem

so far removed

to the point that

we don't feel like

we're part of it anymore,

as if someone erased

us from existence

and superimposed

a sepia-stained

smiling face

in our place.



Maybe we just

forget that

we were happy

once.

This poem is good, but I personally think that no matter what the poem or story is about, it needs some ray of hope and happiness at the end of it. But good work non the less.
