The Past Is Gone!

I feel no regrets for opportunities lost;
I will not dwell on wasted time.
Of this I am sure, and I openly state,
"It is now that I am in my prime."

What's gone is gone, what's left is left.
These facts I cannot rearrange.
I'll let go of the past, and grab hold of what's left.
Now is the time for the change.

What remains is the future. What remains is now,
And it will all play out like a dream.
It will be an ocean of desires fulfilled,
Not a sea of "what might have been."

I won't beat myself up over moments gone by.
These moments I'll never retrieve.
I look forward with hope and courage and know
It's in myself that I will believe.
