Guilt Is a Vector of Time

I understand the pain you feel

When looking back at what has passed, still much too real

You’d wish to go back just to see

If you can do a thing to change what’s to be

You’re not the first nor last to pray

That there’s a way to edit past day by day

Carved into time stay all our acts

Like the flies in the diamond, proof of facts

You can’t fix what was not broken

You can’t change what came to be

You can’t alter words once spoken

In your past you’re never free

Yesterday’s where your mistakes last

Only today you change the future past

Just that we can’t change anything we have been through

Is how we’ve learnt to swallow concept of the truth

But being human means you doubt all what you can

Yet there’s a line you shouldn’t dispute, you should learn

You can’t fix what was not broken

You can’t change what came to be

You can’t alter words once spoken

In your past you’re never free

Yesterday’s where your mistakes last

Only today you change the future past
