The past

The past can hurt you 
And you don't even have a clue 
It's silent and deadly and gets you at your lowest 
It's the darkness in your mind 
That you all try so hard to hide 
It's the regrets from last night 
Or the memory's you try to conceal 
It's the constant fight 
To keep going in life 
The past is 
All the memory's you hide and try to cover with self pride 
All the hurt you feel 
But you put up your shield 
You try to block it out 
But no matter how much you scream and shout,
It's still there creeping up on you 
Just waiting for you to slip 
They say your past can't hurt you
But they really don't have a clue 
The scars it leaves In your memories 
Is all to painfully real 
But let it go and set yourself free 
The past is the past just leave it be.
