Today, Tomorrow, Yesterday
Today’s just yesterday’s sorrow
for today is my last stand of tomorrow
everyday’s pain has been borrowed
all to avoid the darkest hour.
What pain shall breathe for me today
lurking in pitch black in open water
hollow dusk leading the way
perpetuity has shortened my hour.
My pain can never be forgotten
recycled agony deep in my sorrow
damping the soul to press on
burying my face deep in horror.
Today, tomorrow, yesterday
pain grasping my sorrow
so similar in everyday
why can’t I bury tomorrow?

This is pretty good, but you repeat words. A lot. Otherwise, a nice poem, thoughtful, though not really heartwarming coz it's slightly creepy. Congrats on your first poem, looking forward to more. Oh, and welome to DUP.

You do know your metre. There is not one forced rhyme in here.
This rolled off the tongue. Have you studied structure, and form ?

No I have not studied structure and form this my first poem I wrote. I use to enjoy writing when I was in school but it has been a long time since I wrote last. I am happy to get back into it though.
