The past

I want to burn the bridges
i want to forget the past
and i long to get away
from that which will never last

moving on with the present
im leaving the past behind
i progress to the future
not knowing what I'll find

i realize i cant forget
what has happened in the past
like chasing after the wind
its an impossible task

i realize that im trapped
in the sorrow and the strife
i realize that i cant escape
the past that is part of my life
