Yesterday...Today...Tomorrow
My past is my past
It is what is what it is.
I am longer going to apologize.
My mistakes are mine and mine alone.
But without those mistakes where would I be?
You see I am what I am and who I am because
I made the mistakes that I did make. So what?
Do not judge me for my past and past alone.
Today I am a woman of many things.
I am a mother who is denied her kids.
I am a wife but thank the Lord not for long.
I am a sister who tries to hard and not enough.
I am friend to all of those that wants me as a friend.
In my present I know who and what I am.
I know what I want now and who I want.
I know that my life choice is not an easy one
But because I am who I am I can do anything.
Tomorrow is always uncertain
It is never guaranteed to be what you want.
All I know is that I look forward to tomorrow
As yesterday is Gone and today almost is.
Tomorrow is another day to try
And get right what I could not yesterday.
Tomorrow may be the day that I
For once can and will finally shine.
