Yesterday is a pale shadow,
fading from the here and now
Tomorrow never comes
for we are trapped within today
Moments are all we have,
how to make the most of them,
when we can't change the past
and the future is uncertain?
Draw back the curtain
and peer into your hopes
or look back and reflect,
different ways we choose to cope
Is living in the moment
what we all must do
when seconds tick
and alarms clocks click
in the seconds before the bell rings?
Waitng for a sign
can leave you falling behind,
while dreaming your precious dream
isn't quite all that it seems
Where, then, the happy medium
between breathless anticipation
and the boring tedium
Where does one find the strength to go on?...
