Today
Yesterday
you stole from me
my sanity
my purity
my identity
Yesterday
is a broken promise
your tongue slipped
you couldn't keep
a simple vow
Yesterday
is a reminder
of how I've suffered
how I've labored
how I've cried
Yesterday
hurts.
But today
Today is mine.
Today is mine
to make the most of,
to enjoy,
to love,
to live again
Today is mine
and even if you've
infected my brain
you cannot steal
my day away.
Today is mine
and never again
will I let you hurt me
never again
will I take a promise
Today is mine
?and you can't take it.
