Memories can hurt so much
Even those that are the happiest ones
They make us dwell on the past
Wishing that we could go back
To a time where everything felt right
To a time when you didn't cry at night
To a time when you felt whole
When you were the happiest you thought you could be
This dwelling you see
Makes you hate life you see
Because time cannot turn back
Mistakes cannot be undone
Just have to push forward through the pain
That your current life has brung
Try to focus on what good your life has now
The message I want you to get
Is memories are great to look back on for a bit
But please do not dwell lest you end up digging yourself into a pit
That one day might be too deep to escape or to fix
