Rewind.

In childhood we don't think about the impact of our actions.
When we're adults we realize the meaning
Crystallized
Focused
Narrowed
In every event.

Wish
That
We
Could
Rewind
the
Moments.

Change them
Re-shape them
Can't.

I try to press the rewind in my mind.
Maybe it's broken.
Maybe it's frozen.
There's a reason that we cannot change
the past.
It's meant to teach, to reach,
and to impact our lives.

Children run all day in the sun
Not knowing, but still growing
Into adults that will become
The future
Teachers
Preachers
And Writers of the world.

It is in the moment that we change into adults.
We realize that
The rewind is stuck in time.
Not able to rewind,
The moments shaped us and created us.
Impacted us.

Don't try to rewind
Leave the past
Behind, but remember
That who we are is a result of that.

I rewind too much. One of these days, I'll finally realise that it accelerates the deterioration of my tape. Not good.
