Where did my yesterday go?

Did it ever come? Is life an illusion of tomorrow, today

Where did my yesterday go?

Where did yesterday go,

Did I miss it,

waiting for tomorrow,

Did I forget about it,

While bathing in my sorrow?

The hours pass, and still I wait,

For a day that might be too late,

Lost in time, I can’t recall,

Did I even live at all?

Yesterday, a whisper now,

Tomorrow, I don’t know how,

But here I am, stuck in today,

Wondering if I lost my way

Where did yesterday go,

Did I miss it,

waiting for tomorrow,

Did I forget about it,

While bathing in my sorrow?

The minutes slip, the hours fade,

In the quiet, memories wade,

Chasing dreams that never stayed,

While time slips further away.

My heart cries out,

For yesterday.

    One must live for today for yesterday is gone and the future has not come yet. One must live one day at a time. Good job.
