Once a Thing Has Been

once a thing has been 
done it can never be 
undone the memory 
will always remain 
within the mind 
try as you might 
to try and move 
past the past it
always seems to have 
a way of coming around 
to bit you in the ass 
forgive and forget 
does not truly exist 
within the fabric of 
this realm of 
reality 
this concept is purely 
based upon a fictional 
ideal that society tries 
to make seem real
