Time set aside in the future
To repeat the past
To set forth such anger
Mistakes…that are repeated…
Over and over again
Life just repeats itself
Until you sit back and notice
Everything repeats itself over time
You can’t stop it!
You’ve tried
So you sit back
Listening to the screams

Repetition

Topic: oops

Screams mocked by the past
They wait and hide
Till the time is right
Reappearing in the mouths of angry fools
To repeat what has already happened before
In the past
Lies those words
Those cries
Those distorted faces
Crippled by anger
Time set aside in the future
To repeat the past
To set forth such anger
Mistakes…that are repeated…
Over and over again
Life just repeats itself
Until you sit back and notice
Everything repeats itself over time
You can’t stop it!
You’ve tried
So you sit back
Listening to the screams
As the past fades into the future
And you can’t do anything about it!

Yup, I sure have noticed that, but when we actually stop trying to help, is when we are truly dead and meaningless. It might not accomplish much in the end, and it probably never has before, but at least others can say that we tried. Very good insight you have there, good write. I have a poem similar to this, you should check it out if you are interested. It is called "Gestrandet Auf Der Oberfläche".

Hey
This poem is cool,
Ive noticed this as well,
But still we carry on repeating the same things.
I really like this poem, it holds alot of truth.

Take care

I like that the title of this is Repitition, because the ideas within are redundant in and of themselves. Time does slip into the past, but i think that the final line about how we can't do anything about it clashes with the rest of the poem. Sorta like you got to the end and weren't really sure how to end it. I do like your ideas though, bu remember (according to Einstein's theory of relativity) time is not cyclical, its linear.
