After Today
I shall find bluebirds adorning my sky
after today,
knowing tomorrow waits
holding a hand out,
healing the whys
of today with promise of change,
offering faith
to my waiting heart which refuses
negation of love.
I resist relegating us to yesterday\'s
pyre and will renew,
after today, more positive smiles,
then await
tomorrow, not beaten by unwisely
housing doubt,
then maybe we can reconnect lost
loving touch,
repair our verve and dry wet eyes.
After today yesterday\'s fierce ache
may become numb.
