Days Gone By

I remember yesterday, so many years ago.
Memories of a past, some I'd rather forget.
A childhood so long past,
Still today I would wish to play.
Thoughts of tomorrow, imagining,
If yesterday was different, what would I be today.
Which past would I relive if I could,
If I knew yesterday what today would bring,
Could I have changed it to make tomorrow better.
It takes your yesterdays to make who you are,
Because of your past you learn to be you.
I know I cannot change where I have been,
But tomorrow is mine to make what I can.
As I learned from my days gone by,
I will live for days to come.
