All Along

in the light of this new day where dreams of yesterday fade softly away past is the doubt the hapless thoughts sealed with tape the oblong box hidden deep are the old scars packed inside a chambered heart no room for all of those old things never were they what they seemed learning from the same mistakes waiting longer growing stronger bandaged by your love why would I ever want to look back? when I was not on the right track with one headlight I drove away Jakob’s words in my mind played over and over I played your song and still I knew it all along

a thoughtful and rather poignant poem, "bandaged by your love" is a good line...
