You say it's just
The past
Nothing to dredge over
Though they did last
Long enough
For me
To call your bluff
Stress you say they be
Though they are all
Memories to me
Good or bad
It doesn't matter
They all weigh in
The brain gets fatter
Without them
There would be nothing
To build on
You do need something
So please forgive me
I can't help but say
These thoughts as they flow
Even though they're from yesterday
Keep in mind
Not all were
Made blind
Some are a blur
Seems we need to focus
On some type of goal
Maybe pull out the spackle
Fill that big hole
