Tomorrow is but a shadow,

Yet to be approached,

Never to be reached.

Sun’s light illumes my way,

Night shades slow withdrawal

Pale memory of dreams remain.

Old secrets of tomorrow entice,

Allured is the spirit

Its wants unmet.

I mourn loss, nothing does suffice,

To weep for bygone times,

No echoes shall there be.

For today shall be tomorrow,

Yesterday did set me free

Sins no longer dwell.

An end to all my sorrow,

The path is wide before me

Burdens now relieved.
