Irreversable

You can't undo what has been done. This bridge has burned. I crossed it weeks ago. The hour glass has turned over. Time has run out like a pen that has bled its last dot of ink. You can swim or sink. Sink into the whole you have created for yourself. It's irreversable. You can't go back now. No more looking into the rear view. Pick up your head or bury it. Your eyes have changed. I no longer see them shimmer with signs of hope. You are up against the ropes. You can't go back and rewrite the past. Quit looking back. I'll break the rear view just look ahead. Look alive or you're better off dead. What you've done is irreversable. Nothing can be changed. So pick yourself up and breathe in today. Don't look behind just keep walking straight. This path has been broken but only you can seal your fate. Pick up your head or just start digging your grave. Time is too precious to waste. The past can't be changed. Let it go.
