~Fair trade~

Sun rose in the west an set in the east indifference of thought or implanted beast. Current past mind set for those to behold, into the circle not brave yet is bold. A mindset of yore into each day, compounded strife the real slips away. A biggie it's not yet the magnifed vision, manifests a growth with fertilized thought. Clarity is gone as a sprout rises forth, to echo the past in host no remorse. A bitter apple hangs by the branch of a tree, it rot's life around it till it's time, break free~

About this poem:
Sharing a thought of some people I've met over the years and how their past controls their present and future, when the issues of the past are never dealt with and put away. I've met some beautiful people this way, if only they'd let go of their issues by dealing with it:)
