Breaking the cycle

Yesterday was yesterday

Last week was last week

Last year was last year

Today is the tomorrow yesterday strived to be

Will you let it be its own

Or will you demand it become yesterday too?

What is there in yesterday,

that today is meant to fix?

And what becomes of tomorrow,

when today fails to achieve it?

Will life become an endless cycle of yesterdays?

Or, will you let yesterday stay yesterday,

and today stay today,

and tomorrow become tomorrow?

The year still unfolds,

time stays fluid.

The illusion of control

doesn’t change that.

But you can.
