Forward

I look forward even though
the pain of my past makes me
wince.

I dream forward when every
thing in this world 
is going backwards.

I'd build a boat if I had
to just to cross the 
stream onwards.

My heart beats forward
thinking about the type
of love I might expierience
that type of love that conquers all.

I must keep going forward at all cost
if not I might forever be lost.
