MY BETTER TOMORROW

   

               MY BETTER TOMORROW

The dawn chorus sings me up from bed,

Good morning say me to the world,

But that’s hard to come perfectly,

Cause I’m still in my last night,

Terrified by my perpetual nightmares,

Made more bitter by the status quo of my nation,

Socially, politically and economically,

Everyday Circumstances gets tougher,

While the playing ground gets rougher,

To get bread, one has to work harder than necessary,

But this morning, I woke up a little bit older than I was Yesterday,

A little bit healthier I guess,

But more confidently, a little bit hopeful than I’ve ever been.

This morning,

    I am more sober than the night before,

The fear of my nightmares,

Keeps me from being happy,

But the light of the rising sun gives me reason to smile,

I look up with hope as I await the product of today as it unfolds.

I know it’s easier to cry,

When it rains and there’s no place to hide,

When my only source of happiness drowns,

One thing keeps me going,

My hope as broad as the cloudless sky,

Faith is my only tool for survival,

With which I see my tomorrow crystal clear.

 Though,

My yesterday was dirty and tears filled,

But I see a new tomorrow; I smell a sweet aroma and await a fresh breath.

My Saturday was unhappily dusty,

But I anticipate a joyful Sunday.

My last week was tearful and left me weak,

But this week, I shall smile for hope has made me strong.

I never knew the journey of life has its twist and turns,

As I journey through life, different things I see,

But I’m not bothered about tomorrow,

So I let thoughts of tomorrow marry itself,

As I try to survive today,

I rid myself of negative thoughts,

As I ride through the streets of difficulty,

I live for today and hope for tomorrow,

For my tomorrow shall come BIGGER, BRIGHTER and BETTER.

Oh how I eagerly await my better tomorrow.

Beautiful people, no matter how hard it gets, let’s keep hope alive.
