Tomorrow

Today isn't going so well, I wish I could just sleep in, And let everything drift away. All of my insecurities, That keep me locked up tight, All of the things that make me feel not right. If only I could get the much needed sleep, That I so wish for. But I'll be okay tomorrow. Today is not a day that I wish to be alive. I can't face the place I hate the most. It just reminds me of what I had in my hands, And what I lost. I can't help feeling like I'm drowning, When these thoughts hit me hard like bombs in the evening. But I'll be okay tomorrow. I feel dead inside, So now I don't even try, To fix these tragedies, I wish they could be, Miles and miles behind me, But I keep pretending they're not there, That they don't bother me, So no one knows what It's like to be me. I swear I'll be okay tomorrow. As my day ends, I hold him close, And think of just how lucky I got. But everything that's bothering me is still there, It's just not prominent enough to put me down. The sun goes down, And comes back up. I'm not okay.
