The Past It Has Gone Why Do You Waste Your Tears Poem by Francis Duggan

The past it has gone why do you waste your tears
On mistakes you have made in the now long gone years
You cannot change what has been time ticks along fast
Make the most of the now leave the past in the past
Your best days in life you already have seen
And you waste time on lamenting on what might have been
For our mistakes in life we have some price to pay
But why worry about it just live in today
Make the most of the now may seem easy for me to say
But the seconds of our lives keep on ticking away
It is true worry blocks happiness from the mind
And worriers to themselves are very unkind
Your business mistakes may have caused you great financial woe
But the past is in the past and it is time you left it go.
