Never Forgetting

by

Heather Nicole Luther

Sometimes I wish
I could turn my life back,
And this time I’d make up for
All the things that I lack.

If I could, I’d erase
All the bad and evil things I’ve seen,
Or I’d make myself happy
Is what I mean.

Things are the way they are now
Because of what happened in the past,
And I can’t forget about all that stuff
And the memories forever last.

Because I can’t let go of
What happened back then,
I’m messing up my chances now
Of making things the way they should’ve been.

All the things I say and do now
Only make people mad,
And it’s all because my memories
Make my thoughts and words seem bad.

Oh, how I wish
I could live a normal life,
Because maybe then I wouldn’t
Have to deal with all my pain and my strife.

I know it’s bad but sometimes I wonder
Why God made it all happen to me,
But I know it happened for a reason
So who am I to question He?

I try so hard to forgive
And I want so badly to forget,
But I feel like I’m stuck
In a bottomless pit.

As bad as things were
All I need is some change,
But I’m so used to the past
That all good things seem strange.
I’m so sorry to be
The way that I am,
I just hope that God will get me
Out of this jam.

But, from everything I’ve went through I’ve learned
Not to worry about the past all the time,
And I also learned that never forgetting
Is certainly never a crime.
