When Am I

Yesterday came and left 
now I’m uncertain if today is tomorrow
left bereft 

Yesterday sighed
Today is tomorrow’s sorrow
I cried

Align
with, not borrow
time

Yesterday came and left
Today is tomorrow’s sorrow
time

...very interesting write...time is an effect ...and our preoccupation with its details obscures concepts of the cause...that 'potential' which lays 'outside' the now effect......i get carried away : ) ....... stans sand

Ha! Thanks for the visit and comments. I'm glad I started a thread to follow ;) After all, time is just a human concept, eh? Linda
