Tomorrow

This word i could never 

bring myself to trust.

All i wanted was today

for all that i desired was in today

the deep longingness was in today

the me was in today.

the tomorrows seemed distant

and i could not bring myself

to believe in them.

Tomorrows, it seemed, existed 

for the purpses of dilly dallying.

And i would but accept them 

reluctantly.

but today, i say

with all of me that

tomorrows are comforting

and i believe in them

when you say tomorrow.

i do.
