Unforgettable Past by Chelou D. Pantaden
I remember from many years ago
Being disobedient was all I know
I felt mom and dad did not love me so
Coz of things I was not allowed to do
Those I really wanted to give the go.

Until I finally had decided
Never to obey mom and dad I did
Giving them discomfort, I succeeded
Being with my friends I felt delighted
Every now and then we never parted.

But all the happiness I thought would last
Were unpleasant memories left to cast
A beautiful life I once had was lost
All my friends I thought real ran off so fast
There I lived the misery of my past.

Thanks to mom and dad who showed me they care
Good times and bad times they were really there
What I did to them was really unfair
On bended knee I promised to be better
With tearful eyes, they said, get up my dear.

To all children of this generation
You are all the future of this nation
As long as your hearts and minds are open

To all your parents’ teachings and lesson
Each of you will become better person.
