Today

Today.
Today is the beginning of tomorrow,
Of the future to come.
And the end of yesterday,
The past, the history
And the miles I walked.
Today is a beautiful day
Full of potential.
The blue skies greet me,
Acknowledging my thoughts.
Today, is the present.
The day when wonders
Begin to come alight.
Today.

Enveloped

A dark cloud enveloped me,
It was sudden and swift.
My pleasant mood didn't have a chance.
It died, a very quick death.
It weighed down in my gut.
The taste of metal,
Left on my tongue.
It pulled at my heart,
Taking me,
Drowning my happiness,
Hook, line and sinker.
The lightness in me evaporated.
I weighed,
A few tonnes, I felt.
It's sickening, I thought.
What a simple memory,
A moment of truth, can do to you.

One day...

One day you will look back on life,
Maybe as you reminisce in your old age,
Or as you await death,
When you are frail.
On that day,
You will think of me,
And marvel at the love you lost,
The love you so foolishly discarded.
So today, I will smile
Knowing, you are making a big mistake
But happy, that I am ready,
For a better and greater love.

The Wish

If you see this,
I hope you know
I wanted the best
For the both of us.
I wish we could have
Said goodbye,
Not hiding,
And definitely not vanishing.
I wish,
You would have been honest,
Taking time,
To tell me what you feel.
I feel betrayed
By what you are doing.
But I wish you
Nothing but the best.
