Time

Author's Note: I miss poetry so I decided to write a poem. I wrote it on a day where I was very stressed and I hope anyone who reads this can relate.

Tomorrow's already here
Yesterday isn't yet gone
Today has barely started
When it slowly draws to an end
Without a goal to look forward to
Time flies hopelessly
Does it stop-
to let you catch up
to let you go back
to where you messed up
Time doesn't stop
and tomorrow is nearing
Yesterday will forever be a memory
So keep track of today
and don't let it pass you
Think of a goal
to look forward to meeting
Then YOU control time
Deal with it wisely

    This is a great theme to write about: the passage of time. Perhaps getting to the goal isn't important if we are enjoying the process it takes to get there. Just a thought.
