Beyond The Past Poem by Aloo Denish Obiero

The past is a lesson, not a prison,
The past is a mentor, not a captor.

The past is a tale, not a jail,
The past is a page, not a cage.

The past is a foundation, not a stagnation,
The past is a phase, not a maze.

The past is a guide, not a slide,
The past is a map, not a trap.

The past is a chapter, not the answer,
The past is a teacher, not a tether.

The past is a story, not a worry,
The past is a friend, not an end.

The past is a history, not your destiny.
