Longer than a Day
Plan with hope a life lasting longer than a day
dream and make goals it takes years to fulfill
tomorrow will come, and the years will pass
giving you a chance of happiness that's real.
just don't look back, and live in pain and anger
trapped in a sad past you can never change
take words and habits learned, and rearrange
into a new way, a new word, that frees
unless you can leave it behind you, and escape
it will trap you in hate thick memories.
