Poem: “Don’t Look Back Look Forward!”
Don’t Look Back, Look Forward!!!
I don’t look back, I look forward
‘Cause looking back at the past just makes stress
You got to look in the future to achieve
And also believe and keep faith
So this is my little speech
To all my fellow people
Don’t look back
Look forward!!!

I love how your poem is not just a poem but a message as well. I love how short and sweet it is as well,it really made me think about things in a whole different way and I loved that!
I appreciate your positive messgae that comes across in this poem. When reading your poem it brings me back to the present and to not dwell on things that have happened in the past. Thank you for making a positve impact with your poem, keep up the writing.
This was a great poem. I enjoy the message of looking into the future instead of dwelling on what has happened in the past. We may be disappointed with our past decisions, but all we can do is look up from there and learn from these mistakes! Great job!
Your message is beautiful. The struggles of our past is what makes us the person we are today. Don’t dwell on the past and keep moving forward. Keep up the great work.
Hi! I really enjoyed reading your poem. Your words are so very true. The past is in the past. While we may be ashamed of our past, we cannot change it. We have to forgive ourselves, forgive others, and move on with our lives. We cannot harp on the past, we do not need to look back. We need to look forward to the future. Be better than our past, do better than what we have in the past. Remember, don’t look back, look forward.
I love the look forward part in this poem. Everything that happened in the past should stay in the past . We shouldn’t always be look at our past mistakes and form those mistakes we should try and find out how we can fix them and make changes in the future to prevent those past mistakes from happening again. You can change the future but you can never change the past.
The moral I picked apart from this poem is brilliant like the general message. It’s a call to keep pushing forward, no matter how hard life gets, every setback is just a setup for a comeback
I love how positive your words are. It is very encouraging for someone to hear and inspires people!
This poem has such a strong and motivating message about staying focused on the future. The energy in the words makes it feel like a pep talk, encouraging people to keep moving forward no matter what. The repetition of “Don’t look back, look forward” really drives the message home and makes it memorable.
