Prints Left Behind

Why do you live in the past?
With a life that you regret
But not look to the future
Which helps you to forget

I know it's not that easy
With learning to let go
Which only start with small steps
And moving very slow

You know that you're worth more
With the way that you were treated
Because love is always trust
Not excuses why they cheated

Do you think that it would work?
If you believed and took them back
When already in your heart
You feel how much it lacks

And no one can say love
Will always be success
So often it will fail
And make a complete mess

As the future isn't written
With this chapter that you've paused
Don't fill it with all your pain
That all your past has caused

So book mark a new page
You'll see that it is clear
And as your prints start writing
Your future will appear

In life we all take steps
We learn will lead the way
But sometimes become stuck
And trapped in yesterday

Just remember all your pain
In the past that you regret
Compared to a new future
That hasn't happened yet

Because all of this is life
Where we take as well as give
While learning to stay balanced
Is how most of us will live
