..9.. Today did not wait for me
12/14/01
Waking to the day in my room;
Full of things to do, places to go;
People I can see, so much there is for me;
To experience all I can be.
Soon it's two o'clock and then four, then evening comes;
Let me read for a bit, if I can find time for that;
Well those places to go,
I can still do them tomorrow;
I will rest today and tonight, to be ready;
It will be nice to get out, freeing, giving life to me;
Thank goodness for tomorrow.
But I won't think of that now;
I wonder where, did today go;
It was here, and I waited;
But today did not wait for me;
I feel sad, so sad you see;
Oh why did it leave me;
I had so many plans,
But life went away from me;
Oh where did it go;
Oh why wouldn't life wait for me.
Well tonight I will sleep, If i can;
Dreaming my dreams, of what could be;
and would be, if only..
If only...
If only I could live for today;
But tomorrow will come to me;
I must get ready now, for tomorrow;
And for waking to the day, in my room.
I can relate to this one. I drew myself into it.

JOhn
"today did not wait for me" is such a strong line
and makes me feel guilty so i prefer to concentrate
on the fact that as a temple of God anyone can command
time
Fine representation on how it feels to be alive at times.
I can really identify with this. Sometimes I feel as if I have so much to get done that I forget what is really important, adn never get to the stuff taht will matter int the end.
John it's not like your others but still very nice. Oh yes time waits on no one, I wish it would. LOL Enjoyed it and thanks for sharing. love Doris
