Now
Living in the now of which I claim
Tomorrow is just a waiting game
A day we think of so much that never came
Of living my life in the moment I proclaim
'One day' takes all the blame
The basis for fear and shame
For I am here and now
Playing out this moments game
My mind can drift a spoiler that makes life lame
Keeping my focus my aim
Will not drag in of what became
Stroking a spark into a flame.
