The Past

by Melissa G.

The past is a time to remember
the past is a time to forget

the past is a time of pleasure
the past is a time of regret

the past is a wonderful memory
the past is a remembered seam

the past reminds you of your childhood
it reminds you of your dreams

the past will remain the same forever
the future can be changed

the past is filled with special choices
the future seems always delayed

the past is a special memory
the future is a thought

the past can remind you of good things
it can remind you of your sins

the past memories can be held high
the past memories can be thinned

the past holds a place in your heart
the past is within
