Walking Forward

I don\'t want to walk backwards through life,

Second guessing what might have been;

What could have been,

What would have been,

What should have been.

Beautiful decisions, half-followed;

Meaningful words, half-said;

Impactful actions, half-done;

Left behind to die.

Time doesn\'t rewind,

There are no “do overs,”

There are no “takebacks.”

There is only what was,

What is,

And what will be.

And I walk forward.
