Beyond today

Beyond today

There is the answer that only tomorrow can bring.

It lies dormant and still,

It is lifeless,

Shapeless

Unformed.

I am restless for tomorrow,

Impatient to see it's light and it's shadows.

I hurry forward, leaning on the minutes and hours

As if my weight will open it's doors.

Today is lost to me.

It is spent waiting and watching,

snaring reality,

Stealing my life

Snatching my dreams.

How can I return

To dance the day,

How can I rise

To life in the now and not the not yet.

Help me live this day,

In the beauty of each moment

A heartbeat that says "now" as life continues into

The dreams that a lifetime of moments

Will bring into today.
