Today. Tomorrow.

Today I hurt you. 
And tomorrow I will hurt you again. 
I apologize, in advance, for the pain I have, had and will cause you. 
For the days must be twice as long for you, wondering what you ever did to make me like 
this towards you. 
But don’t bother asking me. 
I don’t know myself. 
It comes over me, like a dream.
Coming and going, causing pain and hurt wherever it turns.
For nothing can stop this black flood that is turning my heart to tears.
