An Impossible Fix

AN IMPOSSIBLE FIX

       I journey through the woodland
    Hazily I gaze at the shadows of an- 
                  intangible reality
    There I love roses and hate thorns
       Its a Journey to my yesterday
           In a region called mind.
  There I chose silence and hate noise
     I choose hard work and hate sleep
        I choose humility above pride
                  I leave no soul hurt
           I leave no bone fractured
         Carefully I make a great fix

        I journey through the woodland
           A journey from my yesterday
      Like an eagle on my today to perch
          Alas! No yesterday was fixed 
         Not even a choice was redone
  For it was just a fruit of imagination 
       Conceived in the womb of regret
 Inside the belly of vain contemplation
            So when you receive a day
   From the hand of Him who never err 
       Forget not every moment to pray 
    Remember good choices to make                     
      For even today will be yesterday- 
     and you can never fix yesterdays.
