Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow

I cried yesterday�tears of sorrow
I find today�love amidst madness
I dread tomorrow�fears of losing

I ached yesterday�pangs of sadness
I feel today�joy despite chaos
I curse tomorrow�pleas for delay

I died yesterday�a death of solitude
I live today�live because of you
I ignore tomorrow�tomorrow never comes.
