Yesterday and Today

Yesterday was full of dreams
 you and me in the flow of things
time and space
 hurrying in the age of chase
a home, a car, a job kept us busy
 forever scrambling in a tizzy,
no time to slow our pace
 occupied by the flow of life erased;

Today, all I do is look back
 searching thru the memories we lacked
missing who we were as one
 and in retrospect, life can never be undone
when we shared our promises now erased
 escaped the blessings of love's grace
if only time could be an instant rewind
 when I was yours and you were mine.
