Yesterday
Yesterday
Yesterday I stood there by the ocean
All my tears did flow
My feet so deep enmeshed in sand
Troubles washed away by ocean waves
Seemed the time now to let them go
So today I feel a load has lifted
Far from me it washed them
Away, and I feel free.
Now it’s time to look on forward
It seems my night has turned to day
Looks like the sun is breaking
Though some clouds still hide the way
They’re blue skies that soon will show as
Here I stand and watch. prepared
To face today and
Stay any storms on my tomorrow.
Oh, sad days of yesterday
I look forward and not back
Believe in new tomorrows and
In new steps taken without slack
Yesterday was yesterday
acrostic poem using the words in the first verse of "Yesterday" by Lennon and McCartney
