Leave Some Things For The Past Poem by Preena Mathew

If you bank on too much
From yesterday,
You can not see what
Today has to offer.
It's true to believe-
All things do not seem to last
And you know you cannot relive
It's the best thing to do..
Leave some things for the past...

It seems there's a wrinkle
That makes you think
Those were the days...
May be it's best to rewind at times
But you know sometimes
The best thing to think now:
Todays are better than yesterdays
Leave some things for the past

It feels best people are lost in time
And it feels so good
To recollect those yester years
There's something even better
It's a big sweet today
And you know sometimes
The best thing to do
Is to be there for today
Leave some things for the past


May be time cannot hold
Everything you like
May be like sand that slips
Out of your hand
It's great to feel nostalgic
May be it's feels so good for a while
But there's something right there
It's today asking you to walk a mile
Leave some things for the past

It's best to think..
All doesn't end with a blink
Life is a bitter sweet journey
Not lament what's left behind
There's are a gracious now
You need to have your mind
No worry about that wrinkle
Find things that make you stronger
It's time to live the day and believe
Each day has its joy
Count on those blessings
Leave some things for the past


All things don't last
Oh, how much we care
You know sometimes the best thing to do
Leave some things for the past
Leave some things for the past...
