I wish I knew how to move on,
To leave the past behind me.
But no matter what I do,
Where I go,
What I say,
It hides in the shadows, lurking.
Every mistake,
Every misstep,
Never leave my mind.
It's almost as if
I've been condemned to live eternally in this mind.
A life with regrets,
No matter how big or small;
Each is something to add to list
Of what I've done wrong.
So wherever I go,
Or wherever life takes me;
My past will always be
Something that haunts me.
