When your past finally meets your future
Will it be a glorious Yay or a shameful Nay?
Will the echoes of your bygone days
Bring you joy or make you dismay?
The past, a wellspring of memories
Some sweet, some sour, some bittersweet
But the future, a vast blank canvas
Awaiting your brushstrokes and artistic feats
So, ponder on this question deep
As you navigate life's winding stream
When past meets future, what will you find?
A reflection of your choices, good or mean?
Will you see the fruits of your labour?
Or the thorns of your mistakes?
Will you be proud of the path you've taken?
Or will you be filled with regret and aches?
The past is a teacher, do well and learn from it
Cos, that's the best it can offer you
Do not dwell on its shadows, it consumes
The future is a promise, embrace it
Arms' wide, with an open mind
Backed by courage, determination and hope
When past finally meets your future
Let it be a glorious Yay!
Let it be a testament to your resilience
To your strength, your spirit, your brilliance
For the past is gone, the future is yet to be
But the present is a gift, given to you and me
Let us live it wisely, with love and care
So that when the past meets the future
We'll have nothing to fear
Be it Yay or Nay?
The choice is yours
