    Fears Of Tomorrow

    We are all afraid of day after today
    It is a new day and we do not know
    What it will be like when we get there
    The sun is shinning today, what about tomorrow?

    We have faith in what we can see,
    Fear on what we can’t see, like tomorrow
    Food on the table for today and tomorrow?
    Many reasons to fear tomorrow
    Because it a new day we have to face

    We concentrate on yesterday, so as to be safe
    From tomorrow. We relive the memories
    Created yesterday so as to be able to face
    The unfeasible that we think tomorrow is
    If we had a choice we would forever live today

    The wait is full of anxiety of how tomorrow
    Will be like, will it be like today, or yesterday?
    We want to hold on to what we know best
    And yesterday and today are the familiar faces
    That we hold onto and long to last forever

    As much as yesterday and today may be difficult
    We prefer to hold on, and fight on with what we know
    Though we might hope for better tomorrow
    That we are not so sure, so we just walk into
    Tomorrow because we have no choice but to.

    We tend to hold too much on today has our present
    Not wanting tomorrow to interfere with what we have
    But without knowing it we find ourselves in tomorrow
    And with the fear hanging on has we wait for yet another
    Tomorrow that will always find it way into our lives.

    The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

    Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
