This Is Today
Most days I am over the past and I have let all that baggage go,
But there are days when those memories
And negative thoughts come crawling to the surface
To take me for a painful ride
To where my feelings of anger and hatred thrive and reside
I tell you that I have forgiven you and most days I have
But this is today and I can not seem to put the past away
I wish that all these emotions would just subside
And I could move on with my life
If only I were able to forget just as easily as you did
As if I had woken up today and pretended you didn't exist
