Lets take a walk down memory lane were everything was and can’t be changed. Smiles and hatred. Death and destruction. Let’s take a walk back to a time when we knew everything about each other. When I was Daddy’s little girl and not a teenager.
Let’s remember a time when we didn’t fight. Let’s forget what’s been happening in later days. Let’s be children again and forget about a futures and colleges. All I want is to remember to good days when nothing was wrong and everything was right.
If we forget our pasts we can’t make a future. All these photos spread out on my floor making a mess of my room. All these memories so fresh and far away.
I remember when I loved you, when I had my whole heart to give. I remember so vividly how everything went down from the day we met. Everything made sense then.
Nothing makes sense now.
What happened? We grew up and grew apart. Our hearts grew so cold and secrets developed under our skins, even though there were no secrets we held. Imaginary wrongs based on imaginary days. It was all such a fantasy, that’s were it all went wrong.
I promised I would be there forever. That we’d always be a part of each other’s lives, but it doesn’t seem that way anymore.
All these memories dancing in my head, playing a symphony of emotions across my eyes; torturing me and making me cry. What happened? Why did we lose sight of everything good in our lives?
You say you care about me. You say it hurts when I say you don’t. You say you always will. Now I feel bad for ever wishing you harm. Now I feel bad for living in this make-believe world in my head.
All these photos of when I was child, smiling and happy. My 5th birthday…my 1st Christmas when I couldn’t even walk. There are no pictures of you here.
There are no pictures of the good days we used to have. There are no pictures of me smiling. Where’d all those memories go? They have to be here…
No I’m making new memories. After all this chaos and screaming, I’m finally finding my own, but you’re not in the picture anymore. You never really were.
Let’s take a walk down memory lane, back to all those days when I didn’t have to worry. Let’s go back to when the future was non-existent. When I was a child and so naive. I want to go back to when I didn’t have these memories to carry.
Oh, these wounds won’t heal and you’re not here to say they will. Like you always did…
I can’t erase what I’ve done. I can’t take back those words I said. It’ll never be the same. I’ve torn out the pages and now those pages are burned.
Things will never be the same between us. I can’t forgive you. I’ve got no pictures to look back on to make all these pains I feel go away.
Let’s take a walk down memory lane, back to the good days when I didn’t have these things to remember.

Find peace in the Saviour that comforts, past is past, we have to forgive and forget, to do so we have to start a new. So start today on a new blank page, negativity only scars you further. Figure out what you want and go for it, pain is inevitable, regret is not, live a life without regret. Strength, knowledge and wisdom to you.
Peace.
