Living For Today

My heart left in yesterday My mind set on tomorrow Living for today Stuck like glue & cemented in blue I want to stop caring at all Be a spot on the wall not noticed until it becomes a stain of unrealized pain remembering all those nightmares again My heart left in yesterday My mind set on tomorrow Living for today Let love come back to stay By keeping my thoughts above the fray not for yesterdays or tomorrows nor dreams or sorrows Red will out shine gray Stay still and pray Someday one day Until then, I will be Living for today

I really enjoyed your poem. I am trying to be more "present" myself living for today and not tomorrow or in yesterday! Good write!
