everyday happenings
Looking far beyond
Past what the eye can see
Searching deeper within
Past your forgotten destiny

Hunting to find that one true thing
That makes you soul take flight
Frightenend to come to close
To embrace the love and the light

Moving up and down
And far away from those
Who loved you most
You are no longer a human
But a faded memory, a ghost

You falter as you walk
Down the path to new born faith
You try to make new times for yourself
And forget your old misguided days

And if you could turn the hands of time
Just what would you change?
There is nothing to be forgotten
Not a thing to rearrange

Your memories make you who you are
They give you all your strength
Without them how could you succeed
You wouldn't know to try again

To dust your knees off
And raise up from beyond the dirt
You wouldn't know to be strong
Or how to live with and through the hurt

To judge a person before you know
Them is amongst the highest sins
Because you never know if they're like you
Calm on the outside but a tormented soul within

So go about your life different now
Do not try to remake the past
For when you compare where you've been
To where you reside now

You wont hesitate to tell someone
About the life you led and how
And they may be taken aback
But look at it all in broad view

Your a person of standards now
You have all that behind you
You're a smooth flowing lake now
No longer a rocky ledge

You may regret things
And regretted in vain they may be
Your stronger than you'll ever know
You had your break through- your now a dineisty
