Different Poem by Jess Terry

Different



Yesterday is history,
Tomorrow is a mystery,
Today is a gift,
and that is why we call it the present

How is today,
different from any other day,
we still wake up,
still brush our teeth,
still have a shower,
then we do the same thing,
again tomorrow,
and the same the next day

Does history really repeat itself,
did someone commit suicide,
in America from the empire state building,
50 years ago,
did parents divorce,
leaving the hurt and pain,
100 years ago

Yesterday is history,
Tomorrow is a mystery,
Today is a gift,
and that is why we call it the present
