The Past It Haunts us, It Taunts us Follows us around. We regret We can't forget It keeps us tightly wound. It's blurry, We worry, Will all our memories leave? A hazy smile A blackened tile We're easy to deceive. The Present It wakes us up It takes us up, Plasters us to stress. We face our fears It ends in tears It makes us all confess. It never lasts, It turns to past, Just a distant thought. It's everyday We can't run away, It leaves our heartstrings taught. The Future** We can't hide, Can't brush aside What we don't expect. If it let's us down, We turn it around, It's pointless to object. Simple prepare Honestly care, We just might have a chance A little glimmer Not possibly slimmer It will allow us to advance.
