Future, Present, Past

Future, Present, Past

A Poem by Lizardo

Nobody knows what will happen 
In the great future that we all dream of
Thinking about the future
You think of your dreams
What will become of you?
Think about a new you
Waiting for the future to come
But there is never a future
There is always a present
There is only Past and Present
The future Does not exist
Since you are always in the present
The future....
Thinking about your dreams
Thinking about you
What will become of you?
But instead of thinking of the future
Why not think about the present?
Since we will always be in the present
It's time to make the most of it
Slowly realizing that the path your walking never leads you to the future
It only takes you farther in your life
Because you are always in the present
The future dependes on what you will do in the present
The past is past 
Time has only two states
Present and past
The Future is the Present
Because you work things out in the Present
Thiniking about the Future
Thinking of what will become of me
Thinking about the world
It's Time to forget the past
Dream about the future
And work in the Present

Plain and simple, this poem describes my beliefs of past, present, and future to a pin-point. I have always told others that each is separated by a second in time. The past had happened a second ago, the present is happening now, each second that arrives in the present, and the future will happen a second from now. Even as I write this, countless of seconds have gone, and each sentence was written in the past, although the gap between past, present, and future is only by one second. There is a future, but it's happening a second from now. It's gone within a flash. The only point in time that lasts forever is the present. Great job, well done, and it shows a great deal when I write such a large review on someone's poem or story, meaning it's worth many words. Keep up the work, and I'll be looking forward to reading more. Thanks for the read request!

This is awesome. I really liked the part when it said, "But instead of thinking of the future
Why not think about the present?" It is so true, people say, "Oh it will be better in a year." And a year comes by and it's worse then before.
Keep on writing!

Thank you!
...again it's time to forget again about everything...the future depends upon what you will do in the present...that is interesting...as the day is still relatively new, there is much promise in it, I need to discover what form of poetry to write in if...what a great day it is :)
