Today

Will you ever come my way or have you already turned away
Have you found another path, another love leading you astray
Have you forgotten what is meant to be 
Have you chosen without ever including me.

You cannot love what you do not know
You cannot get credit if you have nothing to show
Yet here I am loving what I want you to be 
Looking in the mirror wondering what you will see.

Maybe tomorrow I will find what I am missing out on
Maybe tomorrow all the darkness and loneliness will be gone
Maybe tomorrow I will loop up instead of inward and grow strong
And finally something will go my way without going wrong. 

But it is still today.
