Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow

Yesterday Today and Tomorrow Yesterday, I did not know you, but you were always in my dreams. I closed my eyes each night, and you winked back at me. Yesterday, I could not speak to you, as I did not have the words. The language of love and affection always leaves you quite absurd. Today, I saw you walking, and YOU stood out like a star. You sparkled unlike others, that’s how you caught my heart. Today, I started to imagine, my life entwined with yours. Those dreams and aspirations, were better together than apart. Tomorrow, I know we will be together, some things are meant to be. A future with the only person, who brought me to my knees. Tomorrow, I will know the happiness, I have sought throughout my life. You and me together at last, was truly worth all the sacrifice. Yesterday, today and tomorrow, I will love you with pure delight. Things that don’t come easy just never fade with time.
