Only you know what the past has brought
so you don't know how a future seems.
Why not live in the present tense,
and see what the future brings.
You say i'm the sweetest,
beautiful: within,without.
And you wonder why i'm so incensed,
when after being "sure," you expressed doubt.
Now that i'm in your sight,
don't let your dreams keep you up at night.
Wake up and smell what's before you:
i'm all your dreams come true!
You say i'm perfect;
in me is everything you could want.
So you see what utter nonsense,
that past ways should haunt.
Thinking of what the past has wrought,
it's hard to think of future things.
But wouldn't it make more sense
to live now for our future dreams?
