Yesterday Was Wonderful Poem by Vanessa Kingsley

Yesterday Was Wonderful

Rating: 5.0


Yesterday was wonderful
The sky a perfect blue
Yesterday was wonderful
All because of you
The grass was green
Birds called out
Everything was okay
Everything that was going wrong
Slowly faded away
My smile was genuine
My laugh was great
But now I remember that it was only yesterday
Tomorrow is here
It brought an odd cloud
Now the sky is dark
The green is fading
The lovely birds have stopped their singing
Widn blows but the trees won't sway
I don't know how I walked away
I don't know why I forsake this joy
Why I longed for tomorrow ignoring?
But tomorrow is here and it's just as nice
Despite the fact you're not in my life
Despite the pain of my troubled mind
Tomorrow for me is perfectly fine
I just want you to know...
we can have a yesterday anytime

This was a brighter poem, but again, there is an odd secrecy here that is palpable. I feel it all the way through. It seems to linger nearby. Just waiting to turn brightness to doom and gloom. I could be wrong, but I sure do feel it. GW62
