Yesterday Are Todays Memories

Open your eyes see the beauty of dawn,
Let the pleasure ease the pain
Of forgiving yourself.

You could not have guessed walking away,
The devastation would cause
Unending guilt feeling .

Forgive yourself you did all that you could
Smile , remembering good times,
Walk tall life still goes on.
