The Past

Why does the past haunt you
When did it die who knew
If you could talk to the past what would you say
Would you ask why is your life this way

Would you ask where did it all go wrong
Or where has the past been all long
But no one wants to talk to the past
They just hope today seems to last

The past has many lessons to teach
Some bitter and some sweet like a peach
The past is something we must all learn to accept
Cause the past came and went while we all slept.
