Only Forward

Anxious thoughts

Clouded mind

Future and past

They’re all mine

I am what I have made

I am what I’ve become

My recollection dims,

Of the me that’s in the past

I focus on the now

I focus on the future

Never forgotten

Never lost

But is what I am now

Thankful for the lessons

Thankful for the blessings

I do the best I can,

With the things I have been given

My family

My friends

My life

I am what I have made

I am what I’ve become

Regrets;

I have none

Without the good

Without the bad

I would not be where I am now, without the steps that led me here
