It was a dark and stormy night
no, not outside
Outside it was beautiful
and still
star filled
But inside
the stormed brewed
If only I had
If only I hadn't
Why didn't I?
Why did I?
The tapes were rolling through my head
all those regrets
all those hurts
it was all there
kodachrome
I hadn't realized how much I am carrying forward
how much past I am
bringing into my present
they are stacked on my back
those acts I regret
those people I have not forgiven
those hurts I have not released
until I am bent beneath the weight
It is time to say
this stops here
It is time to put it all down
take one last look
and walk away
