Yesterday Lost
Reaching back to emptiness
Memories faded to forgetfulness
Building on nothing
Actions guided by flesh and not
Remembered
Emotions sucked out and crushed into dust
Imagination at work
False images as to what yesterday was
Time never reverses
Words spoken cannot be withdrawn
Moments disappear and evaporate
Desires want to influence and
Correct
What is lost cannot be brought back – so
Today is a gift
To make amends and forgive
Needing to embrace the newness of
Tomorrow
