Looking, Forgetting, Dreaming







Looking behind to see what I've left

and moving forward to remember

time wasted and feelings felt

Looking behind to finally let go

of the things built and gone,

the things turned and twisted

Forgetting to look to move forward

the next step new as the last

walking on a path with no end

Forgetting to look to find what we lost

picking up the scattered pieces

making each tiny piece fit

Dreaming of the walk to build

a path so we can learn to stumble

picking ourselves up every time

Dreaming of the walk to run

faster then we ever have before

watching out for everyone else

Looking behind so we can see

Forgetting so we can find, and

Dreaming so we can build
