Over the line

You can't live your life a day in the past,
Just as you can't bring the past with you.
Despite your efforts and vise-like grip,
Through your fingers things are bound to slip through.
It's impossible to move forward while still holding back,
You can't live your life a day in the past.

  1. So true and so well said - and yet so many people try to live this way.
    Nice piece really!
