Like two magnets
Pulling on my heart
Memories of yesterday
And tomorrow eager to start
Though I try
To give equal time to each
I find them both
Just out of reach
Like an old photograph
My memories worn with age
I’m a living photo album
My life’s history on every page
And of memories yet to be
I’ll discover them for sure
Everyday a new salute
As I earn my life’s tenure
But I can’t live in yesterday
And tomorrow is not yet mine
The here and now is where I am
Living one day at a time
