Tomorrow

I finished highschool, with uncertainty creeping into my choices
Uncertainty and overwhelming fear of my Tomorrow cripple my will to fight
My teachers and parents told me my future is bright like a burning sun
It all seem like a lie, I could only see the dim light and unsure clues of my future
I seat at home, while my mate write exams or look for part time jobs in attaining their goals
Tomorrow is a song of my Today, a piercing sound that could block my ear drums without adequate lyrics
I seat at home, wondering day and night what my Tomorrow will be
Maybe I am being paranoid about my Tomorrow
My Tomorrow looks me in the eyes, face to face, and I being lost in thought of Tomorrow, lost the chance to pay attention when my Tomorrow seeks me
I waited, kept waiting
Life keeps passing, time keeps flowing like a stream of water in my head
Time wait for no man, a popular saying
In my perplexed state, loneliness was my companion
Tears of unrequited fear, turning into splitting headaches and my appearance an eyesore
Unable to take the step, scared of the bomb my Tomorrow have in store for me
Choices rings in my ears, not mine, choices of advice from family and friends. Take the step or your tomorrow will pass you bye
But hasn't my Tomorrow been today or yesterday
I struggled to run away from my today, preparing for my Tomorrow
But no matter how hard I struggled for tomorrow, my Tomorrow never seem to tell me what he as in mind for me
Today says goodbye with a facade, he knows my misery
While Tomorrow will always come in my unprepared state
The future hints at me from a far distance, but Tomorrow keeps it's distance
My Tomorrow
