Too many days spent in reflecting on unfulfilled dreams <br />Only now, when it's too late to do anything do I see <br />Missed opportunities to spend this time constructively <br />On important things in life, closed eyes blind to reality <br />Regretful, I spend my days looking back on past misakes <br />Remembering the dreams I had, so sad how fast they fade <br />One by one they fade away, left with sorrow and pain <br />Waiting on my dreams to start, but tomorrow never came <br /> <br />In quiet contemplation, it suddenly seems clear to me <br />So much time spent waiting... time wasted needlessly <br /> <br />Joylessly chasing after something I could never catch <br />Unaware that today is the only day that can ever exist <br />Senselessly I spent days on end wasting precious time <br />Thinking 'tomorrow will be the perfect day for me to shine' <br /> <br />After all this time, now I see, too late to change the past <br /> <br />Destiny was in my hands, but I let it slip, it went so fast <br />Rewind in my mind the time and find myself in yesterday <br />Endlessly grasping at that elusive tomorrow expectantly <br />And now it ends, I breathe my last in sorrow now i see <br />Made the mistake of waiting but... tomorrow is just a dream.<br /><br />John Vogel<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/tommorrow/
