I used the word to refer to people collectively. I tried hard to rhyme but everything on the last stanza seemed to feel forced. So against my better judgement I dropped the rhyme for the last stanza and decided to incorporate contrasting words (down/up, back/forward) as a way to further drive the contrast of life before and after being a parent.
And I thought about using tomorrow but I went with Onward instead. Probably should have gone with my first choice, just thought tomorrow sounded like "just tomorrow" rather than "from now on"
