We all have moments we wish we could change,
Some choices still come back to haunt our mind,
But those old mistakes can leave wisdom behind,
And help us see our lives in a different range.
The past is a story already told,
The pages are written and cannot be changed,
But our future is ours to be rearranged,
With lessons learned from the days of old.
We cannot erase the tears we cried,
Or undo the words we wish we had said,
But we can choose a better path ahead,
And stop letting yesterday be our guide.
Every sunrise brings a brand new start,
A chance to do things a little more right,
To leave behind the darkness and find our light,
And move forward with hope in our heart.
The road behind us helped make us who we are,
The bumps and bruises taught us along the way,
But we decide where we go from today,
Because every person can still reach far.
So don’t waste your life wishing for yesterday,
The past is a teacher, not a chain to hold,
Use what you learned, be brave and bold,
And build tomorrow in your own way.
