I carry the burdens of the past
All these years a deep sorrow
Clouded my heart
As the years rolled by
Every year one step nearer to the grave
I can neither take sorrows with me
Nor can I leave behind to share
What good are these sorrows then
These burdens of the past
Will no longer weigh me down
No longer I will be crying alone
Words will not bleed anymore
A heart lightened, weight lifted
Look forward happily to the day
When the call will come
To travel to the land unknown
Not even the dead will be safe from the enemy, if he is victorious. And this enemy has not ceased to be victorious.- Walter Benjamin
Everything and Nothing. And then some words.

Aren't songs of grief lullabies to the lost?

The past is sometimes too heavy to carry… you have to put it down and move on. Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery. All you have is the present moment. 🙂

And why to spend it thinking about the past.
