Today

If today is only tomorrow’s yesterday
And yesterday’s tomorrow is today,
And today is tomorrow from a point of view
Is today where I always stay?

If to get here I go there and there
Only gets me here, how come it’s said where
You can’t get there from here
When even if I go there I end up here?

Why do we search for things to fulfill
Our sometimes empty and meaningless lives,
And why do we search everywhere but inside
Where every answer resides?

Today is tomorrow in yesterday’s eye,
And over there is here once you reach the view.
Stop searching the world to fill your life,
Look here to yourself and today find you.
