I'm chasing Tomorrow.
I'm running, running, it's an arms reach away.
Tomorrow why don't you stay?
Because I'm being chased.
Yesterday is after me.
Come, remember...it whispers.
Of honeysuckle, chocolate chip cookies,
Sunshine, arguing, rejection, loneliniess,
Divorce, death, oh dear, I'm stuck!
Yesterday gets larger and larger,
Tomorrow get slimmer and thinner,
A vicious cycle spinning out of control
I'm chased and chasing,
A damsel in distress in the making.
"Tick." Goes the clocks.
I look beside me, there's someone at my side.
A watchdog that follows me and asks not a question.
He growls at Yesterday and it backs a bit away.
Today, my watchdog, a knight in shining armor.
This is the end of my tune,
I ask you please, go sit on a dune.
And think of me, running, running,
Think of me running, and I ask you please.
Do not forget me. Do not forget me and Today.
Please.
That was a poem I had to write for English. Hope you liked it. SO...
Over and out.
