Look Ye Not:

Look ye not to the past,

But learn from it.

Look ye now to the future

And yearn for it.

For the past lies in dust,

Lost it time,

But the future is a country,

Yours to find.

And there it lies for you,

Sets of paths you can choose,

Some as winner, some you will lose.

Some may kill you,

Some may not,

But a path untaken

Can ne’er be forgot.

Choose freely and boldly –

The choice will pass fast -

And regrets of a plenty

Are a burden that lasts.
