Decide

Decide

Maybe someday …

Isn’t that what people say

 

But then

They forget

They ever said that

 

Until they see

Someone else

Living their someday

 

And then they wonder

How they kept their day

When there were so many

In the way

 

Maybe one night

They tossed and turned

Had a nightmare

Saw themselves

Somewhere

One in a chair

One in a box

With their someday

Buried in breath

 

Maybe they woke up

In time

In tears

And decided

To turn that day into

Their someday

 

Nightmare’s no stranger

So why is it

That some succumb  

While others someday

TL
