regret is melancholy,
a drawn out paper cut
of memory
upon the soul,
let go of what was,
what is
is what matters;
the past helped form you -
neither good nor bad -
it molded who you are,
you can change today
only you
define your life,
live it as you would like
to look back upon it;
what do you want,
make it so,
the past is done,
it lacks the opportunity
of today

The Past
the past has its way with me, haunting my nights, it finds the deepest recesses of my unquiet mind; planting seeds of doubt it leaves me to wonder at what I was, if I’ll ever be free - I know: the past is passed, I must let it be, process its hurts, forgive myself the pains, but understand it made me, and there’s no one else I’d rather be.
