I was haunted by the past,
because of your presence.
I was dragged by the past,
because of your existence.

I was pulled down by the past,
because of your influence.
I was forgotten by the past,
because of your absence.

I was tortured by the past,
because of your malevolence.
I was blind by the past,
because of your imprudence.

I was imprisoned by the past,
because of your negligence.
I was killed by the past,
because of your disobedience.
