Today (Free verse) by necroscope7
Of all the todays I?ve had
I do think today is the best
Though tomorrow?s today may well match it
Then again perhaps if taken as yesterdays
This yesterday to be
Does not compare to the yesterdays
That spread out before me
Ah, but tomorrow tis the sad one
How many a tomorrow now have I let slip away?
I know not how many more await me
And I cannot seem to keep tomorrows from becoming todays.
Todays of course become yesterdays
So I can only have one at a time
But it is always today and I?ll never run out
So today is not so bad as tomorrow
And the yesterdays I?ve collected
How many now there are
And always more to add
As I lose each tomorrow
But I was born with just so many tomorrows
And no matter how I try
I cannot seem to keep from using them
And what will I do when I have no more of those?
So I look not to tomorrow, it is to depressing
And yesterday is nice to look back on
But it would take me a lifetime to look at them all
So in yesterday I only visit
But today is always here
Always comforting
So in today I?ll live
Yes of all the todays I?ve had
I think today is the best
