Forgetting the Past

When we do, we lose our future

 

Forgetting the Past

 

When will ever it be

That one will heed words of the wise

Listen to their beckoning call

Forsake not the words of old

And watch the signs forewarned the world?

 

Shall one bright Knight arise

To save the Damsel in our lifetime

Would listen to such words in wisdom

Or rather embrace new wisdom

Braced on such frailty as one whisp of thought?

 

Will if ever this should pass

Would we even know it were present

Seeking us out to carry the torch

And show the world bright wisdom old

Or rather sit and idle be

As that treasure fades fast away?

 

Would I were and could only think

Of past lots spent within our minds

Or forget we quickly evils so bold

To follow those whose deeds we saw

Or listen as they insist was all

A vision in passing, not them, but others?

 

Visions withstanding, we hear this call

Take up pen, cast words to paper!

Voice your voice so loud and clear

Let them know we heed this path

Deeds in past foretell our future

And listen we must or revisit anew.

 

All horrors in past,

Could all become new!
