Have hope, just take it one day at a time.
One day at a time.
Have hope that tomorrow will be a brighter day.

Well, what if tomorrow isn't a brighter day?
What if tomorrow is the same as yesterday?

We're always looking out for a better future,
a better tomorrow.
But tomorrow is always the same as yesterday.
The next year always the same as the last.
It never changes and it never ends,
just the same old day over and over again,
forwards and backwards, the same.
Pain. Sorrow. Desolation.

What future do I see?
A mirror view of the past.
And the present?
Merely the journey line of the mirrors of future and past.
A thousand times a trillion reflections running,
forth and back.
Always the same.
Lies. Tears. Loneliness.

Pray for a better tomorrow, it will come.
Just lies to keep us crawling on in misery.
Day by day.
An endless river of tears flowing along the banks of time.
Live to love again.
The eternal quest that only leads to loneliness.

Again and again.
Tomorrow to yesterday realized today.
Smile and cry for it's always the same.
It's as inevitable as death.
The great wheel keeps turning and we,
we keep tumbling along inside.

Broken and bruised.
Waiting for that golden new day.

If tomorrow never comes again that would be alright,
Because I've already lived it,
Yesterday.

My journey
Beyond the reeds, on the far horizon,
The edge of the land;
And here on this small island the boundaries small
It helped me to understand.
For our particular world becomes very small
but we enlarge and expand it by pushing our imagination
And making a creation
of a greater area and depth than is true.
I quite prefer the dream, pushing out, with the waves lapping here
but could be anywhere.
In seconds transported to the coast
or a mountain lake
Somewhere quiet and sensual, where all senses are enlivened.
Expanded to another plain
And I travel there again
To make my own world,
Large enough to encompass so much more.
If we are able to transcend this place,
Our earthly spot, our home
Then we are able to roam on this land
Wherever we choose
whilst we do not lose sight of where we really are.

We can travel afar, maybe transcend this realm
To merge with other dimensions
And that is my intention;
Whilst the twirling golden energy whirls around me
I travel and try hard to see
All that is there to be shown to me
