Today

There was a time I lived for tomorrow not for today.
In a rush to fulfill my dreams. Letting nothing stand in the way.
Reaching high I didn't mind felt the world was there for me.
Then I reached a time of living life in yesterday.
Today was to painful to see.
All my dreams seemed to fade as I looked at what was left.
Just memories of a life I loved, just hanging in the past.
Then I woke to find life moving way to fast.
And I craved to live again.
To feel the thrill of life.
To enjoy till the end.
To live each moment as it comes.
To live life till its done.
So no more living in the past for it is already gone.
The future is not here who knows I might never see.
So I will take the right here the right now for me.
So I will take each day as if tomorrow may not be.

There is nothing wrong with looking back, and forward is sometimes big, but take it day by day there is no movement in rushing. I enjoyed reading this thanks for sharing cheers

H.G.L.4.U: as been said before, yesterday's a canceled check, tomorrow's a promissory note, today's cash! Spend it wisely ;-)
