Tomorrow
Tomorrow.
Tomorrow is a new day, but it feels like it’s in the past.
I repeat tomorrow
Every day of my life.
Tomorrow is yesterday
And yesterday is today.
Nothing is different.
Nothing has changed.
I used to wake up smiling.
Because I’d have a text to look forward to.
But now I look over and there’s nothing there.
And never again will there be.
I almost feel as if it would've been okay if you didn't care.
And that if we stayed in a routine relationship
At least you’d always be there.
Just like yesterday.
Just like tomorrow.
But I decided that I shouldn’t keep asking you to stay.
Especially since you didn’t want it that way.
And now
I can’t let go.
And you’re not making it any easier.
I’m not even sure I want you to anymore.
For if you do
I’ll have nothing left.
Not even the smallest part of you
That I feel like I may still possess.
I don’t know what to say anymore
I feel like I’ve babbled this whole time.
Nothing I wanted to REALLY say
Came out in a single line.
Because you already knew all this
Yeah?
Just like today.
Just like yesterday.
Just like tomorrow
