Reliving days of yesteryear
Recalling days of pain
Summoning pictures of loved ones
Bringing them closer once again
Feeling the same foreboding
Walking that valley of fear
Trying to hold on
To those we loved so dear
Re-examining choices made
What if I'd done this?
Should I have taken the other road?
What signposts did I miss?
Was it karma or bad choices
That led to some regrets?

We cannot change what was
Nor ever bring back the past
But only savor the memory
Of a love that will always last.
