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.  UNSUPPORTED CODE
