The cycle

Anonymous

I remember yesterday, Looking back, With disappointment, I could’ve done more, Or something else, I could’ve helped, Been more productive, Been better, Stronger, And perfect, I could have resisted, I could have fought back at the emotion, Swirling and pushing me down, But I crumpled, Even if I did great, Didn’t make a single mistake, I could have been better.

I look forward to tomorrow, Full of possibilities, I can write a book, Cure cancer, Or solve world hunger, I can do anything tomorrow, Not today, I’ll procrastinate, And the cycle will repeat itself, I could’ve done more, I could’ve helped, I have no one to blame, No one except myself.
