Blank Todays

Yesterday, we met, and talked
Of dreams that bound us,
Of pains that were mine; only
That yesterday is long gone.
Tomorrow is but another's
Story. Of newer dreams, different
Desires that will bind me to another.

Today's all you've got.
The hours trickle by - 
Stripping my shell off;
Leaving me with fears
Better left unfaced:
Of a tomorrow with another
Opportunity lost.

You add another yesterday
To my log of blank todays.
