Today Will Never Be Same As Yesterday

‘Twas a day that no one is there
‘Twas a day to continue its mourn of yesterday.

Silence reveals itself in a more accord way
Came in a loud quietness and slaps its way to my day.

Calm as I want to be, yet disturb when it came
Shouting words I never spit was all I can do to the tune of whistling meadow in my nearby door.

To it, it came
Tearing every hope I have to continue a day.

People ask me of how I feel,
Do I have a problem or anything to share

Silent as I am and paint a smile
Just to exclude myself to explain the real mystery of my day-to-day.

Creating a facade of merry and gay
Is now transformed to weary and gray.

How can I be strong?
if all I am doing is writing poem?

How can I catch the bow and be the archer to shoot its arrow?
If I can’t hold myself and stand firm to what I believe.

I know I can still walk for a day
A couple of days I can say.

Beyond the horizon of where I traverse
I know I can be okay

I just need to pause,
Kneel and PRAY.

Poetry allows one to gather and organize their thoughts, its very healing. Prayer is a passion of hope for something more...nicely written my friend :)
