Living In Yesterdays
For so long I’ve tried to live in yesterdays,
To be content to live in the past so I could
Cope with the sadness of these present days.
But I realize yesterdays can’t give me
The answers to the problems that face me.
The past is just the past and not reality.
The lives and emotions I felt back then,
Are lost and gone forever never to return again .
I’ve wasted so many years searching for an image that was gone so long ago
Knowing that forward is the path to follow.
To accept this new path with each new day
And stop living the memories of yesterdays.
