The Past

I'm thinking of the past

But I need to let it go

I'm tying to go back

Why can't I let it go?

I'm thinking I still need you

You haven't left my mind

But really that's not true

I need to put the past behind

We had our chance it failed

And gave us both regrets

I'm not sure if I care

But it's better to forget

We went our separate ways

Our paths have yet not touched

But the years have turned to days

Until our paths run out of luck

That moment when I see

The other persons eyes

Emotions may just flood me

As I remember the lies

All the gestures that were false

All the words that were unkept

I should've stopped before I loss

The day that we first met

But I had no way of knowing

What would soon occur

You told me of your lying

And left the day after

So now I face my past

With the memories forefront

I tell myself it's the last

Time we will confront

Before words are said

I turn and walk away

The feelings I had are dead

The past can't change today

My mind and thoughts are lighter

No longer dwelling on yesterdays

My future seems much brighter

Just focus on today
