Rearview moments cling to hope
of future's unobstructed path
lingering, but not too long
avoiding fate's destructive wrath
memories of what was known
knowing now how wrong it was
unspoken stories fill the mind
as it resolves the "just because"
skeletons left in the dark
are fearless, for they've nothing left
save for the cage that once embraced
a beating heart now gone. bereft.
Be wary, traveler, looking back
all is but reflected light
the image in the rearview
will not offer true insight


Peace,

Dave
