Past Is Past

an old friend you hear her voice
in your mind you have the choice
you got hurt before the scars still show
was it long enough can you just let go?
you poor your heart out and just hear no
the flood of emotions seemed to flow
out of your heart you just don’t care
and now you see them sitting there
the good times had blocked by sorrow
love was never had its always just borrowed
looking back you realize the spark was there
it hurts so bad to hear the words " I don’t care"
can you forgive and let new times come
or is the past the past what’s done is done
she wants to talk her life has gotten tough
but where was she when your times got rough
you look around wishing for a sign
a picture a memory any type or kind
something to make you think it feels right
the feeling is gone the time has passed
What’s done is done the past the past
