Tomorrow Lost

Neville

Tomorrow Lost

 

Let us raise

Our glasses

To all those

Times

When dreams

Were not enough

 

To all those

Hurts

We hide behind

And the time

Your smile

Turned

Upside down

 

When our

Beloved blues

Assumed

The shade of

Absent bruise

The smallness of

Another day

 

Yes let’s drink

To all

Tomorrows lost

And moments shed

Like reptile skins

Along the way

Now long forgot

      What a memorable recitation.
      I cannot seem to come out of a dream state, or maybe I just love being there, letting all the tomorrows be lost

        Whatever the case, I am grateful for your visit & true....

        Neville,

        A wonderful write that evokes many memories...whether lost or perhaps just dormant! ‘Tis our choice to hang on to them or to let them go and move on!
        Thank you for sharing!

        ~Laura~

          Sharing is such a pleasure dear Laura...

          and I subsequently thank you for your impression and opinion of these words.
