Fool's Calender

Another end has come to 
stay
Another year, and month, 
and day,
A page fearfully tossed 
away.
Yesterday's tomorrow is 
here
Knight, have you defeated 
your fear?
Can those dreams you 
beautifully
Dressed in tomorrow's 
shadow be?

Hah!

Your heart still skips from 
same old fears
Your voice stifled by same 
old fears
Many morrows lay many a 
king to 
rest
Who dare not face the 
bloody test.
In dreams you hide your 
trembling mind
To be washed about and 
tossed behind.

Today my friend is always 
today
Tomorrow stays forever 
away
You live and die within today
Yesterday, tomorrow are 
words
to say.
