A Shade of the Past Should Not Control You

Don't live in the past Let the bad memories go So you can live your life! It is not easy but you have to try So that you don't let a shade of the past control you! Don't let your Memories steer you to Injustice ‘Can I go forward when my heart is here?’ Breaking the shackles because there is nothing to fear In the misery of comfort A memory can be dangerous Floating in time, you have to find A process that can be victorious in the face of a bad memory! A tragic flaw exist today Memories can be positive but Too many want to use it as a weapon For the destruction of someone! Memories can be a weapon But memories can also be a beautiful thing and Contribute to the positive purpose and direction of your life! If your memory is a weapon You will learn one day that your memories Should not consume you in the direction of injustice! In the misery of comfort A memory can be dangerous Floating in time, you have to find A process that can be victorious in the face of a bad memory! Don't live in the past Let the bad memories go So you can live your life! It is not easy but you have to try So that you don't let a shade of the past control you! Mark Frank Copyright 2022
