Before I Knew About Tomorrow

They say its nothing Could it all go wrong Every sign says so A long wait Yesterday was normal Can we go back again To the time I laid in bed so unafraid Thankful for all I had In my prayers Hoping this would last But knowing it couldn’t The night is long I listen to his breaths And my mind races I wish I could sleep As I look out my window At the street lights and the stars in the sky My world becomes so small I finally drift off in his arms There are no dreams Just blissful exhaustion For a few hours Morning arrives and brings A clearer mind Hope is again stirring In my soul And I begin today
