Tomorrow's Memory

Today I remembered what 
I was supposed to forget

Hidden, somewhere between
yesterday and never only made
a realization of what once was,
was only a part of yesterday's
happiness

A future of tomorrow's empty dreams
Dreams that can be visualized but not
completed

Today is forever as we can't go 
back, nor can we go forward

But living for today will make
tomorrow's memory

bonnie this was very clever. A future of tomorrow's empty dreams. Can be visualized and not completed. Have faith hope and determination to complete them. If there is a will there is a way Unless it involves someone who is not here anymore. very touching and so much truth. Im again sorry for the loss of your mother. The memories that that home brings is your heartfelt box the house. God bless you and keep yousafe and may your heart be renewed. Warm Hug Michael Torres
