Don't look back

I wrote this a while ago, but I figured I might as well post it and see the reaction.

Don't look back
Look at how far we've come
Not nearly enough
But further than yesterday
Keep progressing
Don't look down, don't look back
You'll fall, stay focused
Here, take my hand
Never fear, I'll help you
There you go, keep moving
I'm right here.
Don't look down, don't look back
You'll fall, stay focused
The mountain's steep
Don't let that bother you
I know you've tripped often
But that's why I'm here
Don't look down, don't look back
You'll fall, stay focused
The cold wind bites your skin
You shiver violently
Against its bitterly icy touch
Don't let yourself go numb
Don't look down, don't look back
You'll fall, stay focused
Remember, I'm here beside you
I'll always support you
I'll always help you
I'll always stay
Don't look down, don't look back
You'll fall, stay focused
Look at the peak!
It's not that far!
Yes, always look ahead
We're very high... don't be scared!
Hold on tight
And don't look back.

Well said, i totally agree with his interpretation; that God is always telling us to keep moving foward. I also got (from the poem) that God forgives us if we mess up, it's just a part of life. And what is done is done and it's best to keep moving forward. Also, that God is helping poeple from straying away too far and helping them remain strong and focused on the path to glory.

I really enjoyed the poem shadowblade. It's nice to see poems with a positive message, we don't get to much of that now days.
