Three Steps Forward

Butterfly Division

I walked through roads I can’t rewind,
Old mistakes still cross my mind.

But every scar and every fall
Was just a lesson after all.

I won’t erase the things I’ve been,
They shaped the soul that lives within.

No chains from yesterday remain
Just wisdom written through the pain.

I breathe it in, I let it go,
The past is something I outgrow.

Accept the past without regret,
It made me who I’m meant to get.

Right here, right now, I claim my ground,
No doubt can turn my courage down.

The moment’s fire burns so bright,
I hold the day, I own the night.

No shadows strong enough to stay
When hope is lighting up the way.

My heartbeat drums a fearless sound
I’m stronger every time around.

I lift my eyes beyond the blue,
The future waits for something new.

Past, present, future all align,
The road ahead is truly mine.

Face the future brave and clear,
With open heart and fearless cheer.

Three simple truths to guide my way
Yesterday, now, and the coming day.

And every step beneath the sky
Reminds me I was born to try.
