Today
Today and Tomorrow
These days
I don’t know why there isn’t a smile on my face.
I got through the emotions
Of every day life.
Work, school, and no play.
I try and love
Like there is no tomorrow.
I give all that I can give
But sometimes at the end of the day
I have nothing left
To say or do or want.
I can only pray
That the dark days are behind me
And many roads left untraveled.
I’m numb and emotionless
Trying to find my happy place.
I wonder if I will ever look in the mirror
And see someone that is beautiful,
To see a face and a body that I can love.
I’m amazed that someone could love me
Even though it’s hard to love myself.
Sometimes these tears overcome me,
And it’s hard to breathe and stop shaking.
But then I look up at the sky
So blue and calm
And it takes me to a place where
There’s no cancer, no fights, no heartaches
But only unconditional love.
But most of all it’s filled with laughter
And celebration of the ones we love.
