Today Poem by Pamela Mote

So far away
It seemed yesterday
You were the one for me
But problems escaladed
Higher than the clouds could reach
I heavily breathed
As I stopped the crying
You faded away
Today
She made me mad again
An enemy once a friend
Committing so many sins
Today
As I turn to look
It is all happening too fast
I laugh to ease the pain
But the truth is I have nothing to gain
Today
So tonight before I sleep
I hope tomorrow will bring
Something that is much more fulfulling
Than madness and crying
Something more fulfilling than today's black shining
Let me live another day
