Moving On

Moving on.  It doesn't mean you have to change who you've become; Just the lens through which you see The person you could be And rise above. Moving on. It doesn't mean you have to leave it all behind;  Just the version of the past That you have cast Within your mind.  Moving on. It doesn't mean you will forget what's comes before;  But that first you must forgive So you can finally live And become more.  Moving on.  It doesn't mean you're giving up or giving in; But that you're laying down your guns Because you've already won The war within.
