Yesterday & Today Poem by Sandra Finch

Today our marriage ended, I'm left with a broken heart.
The Judge says it's over as I watch my world fall apart.
We met in high school, I fell so in love with you,
We promised to love no other, now, I'm alone and feelin' blue.

Now I see you across the room, wishing you would stay
Thoughts go through my mind of you on our wedding day.

Yesterday you were my lady, my dream come true
Yesterday we were together, never dreamed I'd lose you
We had plans for the future that included you and I
Today I'm left here all alone, needing you back at my side.

Now it's over, seems trouble is here to stay.
My life won't ever be the same since you sent away.
If I could turn back the clock and again it was yesterday
May things could be different and I could convince you to stay.

Yesterday you were my lady, my dream come true
Yesterday we were together, never dreamed I'd lose you
We had plans for the future that included you and I
Today I'm left here all alone, needing you back at my side.
