Yesterday

Yesterday oh yesterday in my mind plays today
Brooding over spilled words and things unable to say
Stones left unturned and bridges I have burned
Bitter sweet memories of loves lost return

Yesterday oh yesterday here you are once again
Playing with what ifs and what could have bins’
Regrets brought up and past turned present
Heartache seems to be a permanent resident

Yesterday oh yesterday time for you to go away
New lights shine and new games to play
Chances to take and bridges to make
One special fantasy to live out at the lake

Yesterday oh yesterday here it comes my today
Boulders to crush and old words to say
Friends to fine and love to create
Yesterdays gone but it’s never to late

I’m letting go of all my lonely yesterdays
Tomorrow promises liquid sunshine
And today grants my every wish
Yesterday’s gone time to finish

The present is a present the future for planning
So come let’s enjoy our lives without worrying
Tomorrow is always bright and fruitful
Today is what we make it let’s make it our jewel

( for Alissa :) )

very very nice poem maybe should have been a little bit longer. instead of jewel should hve finished it with like a "because the past is the past so lets make it our tool" but i mean it is already amazing.

like leave it how is is exactly just at the end at "because the past is the past so lets make it our tool" meaning like lets get better from our mistakes.
