REWIND

Past lives on in perpetuity,

Words and deeds for an eternity.

Forever chiseled on the wheel of time,

Sins, omissions, and days sublime.

If somehow we could fold back time,

Right our wrongs, undo our crimes.

Alas, life has no rewind key,

Fast forward only, at time-warp speed.

Our only chance is the now

To make a memory for tomorrow.

Our only choice is the present,

The past is born as life is spent.
