Forever

Linking a bridge to the future
Bringing home shrapnel from the past
Moving forward is not forgetting what was
The good moments wave as they fly by so fast


What past baggage will you bring on your journey
They tell me it's all or nothing
But I don't want to leave some of my core behind
I must then face and clean everything that I bring

Give me the strength to sift through
Give me the strength to identify
Give me the strength to transform
Give me the gift of peace
