New Day

It feels like a new day.
New beginnings. Why?
There are no old bills to pay
but only memories of lost friends.

To dwell on those is easy
and to move on is unthinkable.
To piece your life back together
is a brave thing to consider.

It is a new day
and things run as they do
without any control from you.
It is a new day.

Future versus Past

The only good day was yesterday.

The only happy day was yesterday.

The only clear day was yesterday.

Things tend to get worse;

we expect goodness

and out comes horror.

I look back and I see goodness.

I look into the future

and I see darkness.

One day, my today will be in the past.

That day,

I will see goodness in it

at last.
