Goodbye yesterday

 UNSUPPORTED CODE  When I 
was little I never played in 
parks,

never cut my knee when I fell,

never had that farther-daughter 
experience, instead I went 
through hell. 

Mam just looked straight past 
us,

even if we were un-well.,

If he hit me when I was wrong,

I couldn't cry, could not dwell,

because I wasn't aloud to tell.

Mam was sometimes away to 
long,

least she wasn't permanently 
gone.



I remember some nights i'd 
just lay,

I didn't know why, but i'd begin 
to pray;

''save me from tomorrow'' is 
what I'd say,

''I don't want to do what I had 
to today''.

But morning came, still in that 
same place,

not a sentence to bed said,

the same look on my face.

It was then I realised,

today would be another 
yesterday, 

and tomorrow wasn't going to 
go away;

not unless i told someone what 
happened today. 

After then, tomorrow wasn't 
like today,

''Thank you'' became the only 
words i needed to pray,

because no longer did I have to 
stay,

so listen to what i'm about to 
say;

tell someone,

tell them today!

Then its Goodbye to yesterday.
