Tomorrow
By Michael Tronnolone
The day after the happily ever after,
the day after the credits roll.
There's always tomorrow.
And the day after that,
and the day after that.
There is no finality.
The world will keep on spinning and we will keep on feeling because...
there is always tomorrow.
Tomorrow we awaken,
with the knowledge of the bravery of yesterday.
We awaken with fresh thoughts,
with new ideas,
with new goals to accomplish,
and new targets to meet.
While we remember yesterday.
Tomorrow's uncertain,
and yet I mourn for the tomorrow that never can be.
I mourn for the tomorrows I have missed
because of the yesterdays I have lived.
And I apologize.
Not only to myself, but to everyone around me whose perfect tomorrows never came.
Because of me.
But that won't stop me.
I'll keep on trying
to work towards a better tomorrow,
because I cannot change the past.
Tomorrow will arrive,
but I'll start today.
