I should not look back
leave the past behind me
Little things niggle
That I can’t let go
The child I missed time with
The loves that I’ve lost
Homes that have gone
Moments that were missed
Kisses now a dream
No hand to hold
I should write them down
Burn the ash and bury
Leave the regrets
Deep in the ground
And make space
To embrace the now
Have empty arms to receive
New love, adventures
Time ticks on
No more chronic regrets.
