Return To Memory Lane
Alas Johnette! you seem to think that memories are of no importance
But know that it always depends on the circumstance
If the past is the place where you had your best dance
Wouldn’t it be wonderful if in going back you have a chance?
I do not intend to raise your eyebrow
But wisdom is something from the past we borrow
What we are now is something from the past we owe
It is actually the reason why we grow
I do agree that everyone must face the morrow
Even if what faces us is an arrow
But the past even if filled with sorrow
Is a good place to look back to gain wisdom and strength for tomorrow
