If Tomorrow Comes

We all wait for tomorrow Presuming it to be the end of our sorrow The day that will mark the beginning of our joy Or the day we will give up all acts of coy We all wait for tomorrow To remedy the wrongs of our past To find our way higher up the mast Or to find better roles to cast We all wait for tomorrow To pray fervently for forgiveness To treat fairly those who have less To tread cautiously, as in a game of chess We all wait for tomorrow To prepare harder for the test To strive to be better than the rest Or to wrung free off evil nests We all wait for tomorrow To become better versions of ourselves To remove illicit books from our shelves Take a good look at yourself But why for tomorrow must we wait To right the wrongs of our lives? Never must we procastinate 'Coz if tomorrow comes, it may be too late.
