I always try to stay positive and think forward
I don't want to keep thinking about what I cannot change like a coward
Sometimes we are too scared to live our lives
I am not talking about the man with nine wives
Life is different for everyone and most get stabbed with back knives
Others get betrayed and have their emotions shattered
I've seen and heard the stories of those who lost everything
I've read and listened to how others got ripped off too
This life deals with everyone in different ways and that's life
What's the point in sitting at the foot of the mountain to cry
Getting dealt with by life and being left to fry?
What's the point in holding on to what isn't working anymore
Rather than seek alternatives to what might still work?
Fear has held most people back in this life we live in
That they would rather stay in the familiar than try something new
Even if the familiar isn't working, they just want a reminder
A reminder of how things used to be rather than what could be
Apostle Paul was a smart man, that's why he said what he said
"Forgetting the past and pressing towards the mark"
There is no point crying over what's been done and dusted
Life gives us new chances at times, do your best again and don't get busted
Learning from what has gone wrong is the key to facing new challenges
Knowing you have a chance to do it better and faster this time around
What's done is done, the question is "What are you going to do about it?"
Thank you for your time.
My pen doesn't bleed, it speaks, with speed and ease.
Still me,
My tongue is like the pen of a ready writer.

What's done is done... True.
You can't change the past, or how many times you've been stabbed in the back. Only thing you can do, is make changes in your life that might make a better future happen.
Never forget the people in your life that left a scar.
I agree. We should never forget but we need to move on from it. What's done has been done. We have to look ahead with the lessons burning at the back of our minds.
This is interesting. What's done is done. There is no need crying over spilt milk but rather we think of how to salvage what had been done to have a new experience. I love this.
You nailed it. Thank you.
Thank you for the lovely piece.
