If Only Tomorrow Never Came

By QuietlyRemembering

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Sometimes I just wish yesterday never happened.I wish the sun never rose,The moon never set,The stars never stopped shining.Sometimes I wish today never came.I wish that right now, in the darkness of 4 a.m.,The darkness could devour everything I once knew.I wish that now would last forever.Forever in this moment, Sitting here,Thinking about what will happen to me tomorrow. Wondering how I will get through another day.Sometimes I wish tomorrow was only a dream,That if it did come I could sleep it away.Sometimes I wish I never knew of such a dream,Yet sooner or later I must wake up and realize: Yesterday came,Today was terrible,And tomorrow will only be worse.
