You Killed Tomorrow

By PJ Perry

You killed tomorrow

By reviving yesterday

You brought back all the sorrow

That never went away

How can I move on?

When the past is right behind me

Tomorrows now unreachable

Yet so close to smell and see

I'm stuck here now forever

Trapped for eternity in the present

I'll move on probably never

And I'll always feel resent

The past and future might as well hold hands

Make today the absentee

There will only be two time bands

Instead of all the three

I might as well be in a cell

No chance of any bail

No chance of visitors or parole

Just rotting away in a jail

I would beg for, steal or borrow

Happiness for just one day

But how can I when you killed tomorrow

By reviving yesterday
