Reflection

How often do we find time?
To think about the past
Lost friends, lost loves
Doesn’t it feel like a crime


Always moving forward
No matter what the cost
But what good is the future
Without looking backwards


Surely our past is our guiding light
Remembered errors made, successes had
Leading our steps
Measuring the wrong and the right


So, take the time and recall
Your journey to date
All the good and the bad
And you may avoid a fall.
