Past mistakes
      that made history
Won't let go
Appearing to hold some
Despite a present and future
      that awaits
Some will remain content
       wallowing in their past mistakes
Never making history in the present
        to move along in their future
Only left to lie stagnant
          in blank state of mind
All ones choice
Then there are others
Others who wish to live in the present
           finding a path to their future
They fight and hold back past mistakes
When appearing and intersecting them
            as a rememberance
Pushing it back
Picking up pieces of knowledge
           in the scuffle
Moving forward all the while
Finding peace in the present
          that anticipates a future
All ones choice
Again
