Tomorrow Never Ends

Why look with regret upon yesterday
Wherein today lies the ability to rise up
Why wait with bated breath for tomorrow
When today awaits with all its splendor

The perfect place

All lies tomorrow
Or so we imagine

Let yesterday be
Hard as it may seem
Live today with prudence and valor
At least attempt
Tomorrow will come again
And again
Or so we hope

I open my eyes to a bright new day
With proof of the night’s musings on my cheeks
The sadness is gone with the night
A beautiful new day it will be
