Don't cling on
To what you no longer hold
It's run its course
As the story's told
What you once had
Is now long gone.
Don't wear it out
Don't stretch the song.
Leave the past where it is
The future awaits
All it takes is one step forward
Through those daunting gates

You are absolutely right. Although that one step is the hardest one, once it's taken the rest is easier.
Totally agree. Sometimes it is just good to get going.
Enjoyed by me my friend ... its great to see what spills from thy pen without the constraints previously imposed ................. 🙂
keep em coming .. Neville
Thank you Neville!!
It's a thing we all should do, dump the baggage. And even though she married that right boring guy, at some point you know she's coming back.
Dumping baggage is the best!
A brilliantly written poetic warning here Draven, as you've said, it's really important to realise when to start a new phase in one's life.
Our pasts will always be part of us, but it shouldn't define us, as a glittering future is to come.
Bravo, and I hope that all is well!
Thank you very much!
