Tomorrow

Tomorrow.

Tomorrow I will go see her

To myself I say
Tomorrow I will start that task
I have another day

Tomorrow knocks on my door

Finds me still asleep
With my eyes wide open
In trivialities
I am drowning: am in deep
In love with the unimportant
The nonsense I am determined to keep

Tomorrow I will be happy

Tomorrow I will rest
Tomorrow I will go for that walk
I promise I will do my best
Tomorrow I will hug my children
I know soon they will leave the nest.

Tomorrow knocks on my door

Announcing the demise
Of she I meant to visit
Now, alas! She is no more.
Tomorrow sends a message
Slow down it says
Breathe, take a break
Live! Let your spirits soar.

Tomorrow creeps in quietly

Without warning- with stealth
While you aren’t watching
Steals your youth
Your vitality
And your health

Tomorrow offers hope

While today offers more
A chance to do right, plan
Why choose to miaow
when you can roar?

Tomorrow deceives you

While today offers it’s hand
Give it it’s due
You shall see
You shall understand
That
tomorrow was today
That
you chose to ignore.
