Kept For Me To Keep Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Yesterday,
Is just a day that's gone away.
Who's to say,
Today wont be the same.

With each day my life has meaning.
Dreaming,
I do...
For something I'm missing,
That would stay.
Like a happiness wished and prayed.

Yesterday,
Is just a day that's gone away.
Who's to say,
Today wont be the same.

Yet something has to change.
Something I can hold,
I know belongs.
And will not from me leave.
Something just for me to keep!

Something,
I feel is real.
And kept for me to keep.
