Like Everyone Has Poem by Francis Duggan

Like everyone has i am one who has a past
And only the good memories of what was we do wish to last
The bad and sad memories we've known we wish to forget
Just like the old saying goes one lives to regret
Past friendships gone wrong and mistakes we have made
Some memories we have we wish from us would fade
We may look on the past like every yesterday
But bad like good memories with us tend to stay
Till the reaper claims the life's breath from us whenever that be
Like the good we remember every bad memory
Suppose for as long as we live this is how 'twill remain
When in memory we visit our past days again
In life we know of happy times and times that are sad
And we do remember the good and the bad.
