Tomorrow is Today

Tomorrow is Today

A Poem by Elina

Tomorrow is a new day;
A brighter day, filled with hope.
I shall walk freely, then;
No longer fearing the voice
That is my own.
Tomorrow my cowardice
Will blossom into radiant courage.
I will stop longing for the dreams I dream,
And start living those grand tales.
Tomorrow the sun will rise
And shadows dissipate.
Oppressions cease,
Chains unbound,
Freedom found
And truth released.
Tomorrow I will not wait
For things to change,
For a life anew.
Tomorrow I will make my way,
Battle through,
Fight "'til the bitter end."
Tomorrow will not escape my grasp;
It will not drift away.
It is not the sands of yesteryear;
Tomorrow is today.

Your welcome!
This poem instils a sense of hope and optimism.

It is a voice of defiance, humility, experience, la joie de vivre (joy of living) and strength.

The word-choice is perfect and the rhythm is smooth.

WELL DONE

Tomorrow will not escape my grasp;
It will not drift away.
It is not the sands of yesteryear;
Tomorrow is today.

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it.
I like this very much. A take-the-bull-by-the-horns sort of poem. Inspirational or rather motivational, this should be printed up and posted on procrastinators mirrors all over the world. Bravo!

Thank you so much.
I had to read a couple times to just get the pacing right in my head. I know its hard for the reader sometimes to get the pace that the writer intended for, right of the bat. But after my slow brain could finally get it right, I am just impressed, and I will gladly take notes to better myself taking your art as an example.

Seriously, this is totally my kind of writing.. Especially on a day like today. To day. Take it, to the day.
Well played, Cheers.
