Tomorrow I won’t.
3/31/20
Tonight I’ve been thinking about you, because tomorrow I won’t be.
Tomorrow I’ll be with him and not you. And this wasn’t how I thought this would be.
But I’m here and you're not and now there’s been years between us.
You’re not here but you are.
Sometimes I still feel you, sometimes I still hear you.
But tomorrow, tomorrow I won’t.
Tomorrow I get to try again.
Tomorrow he will be here because you’re not. And though this isn’t how I thought it would be, this is how it is.
Tomorrow I won’t think about you because I’ll be thinking about him.
I’ll be thinking about how he is all the things you couldn’t and wouldn’t be for me.
I’ll be thinking about the future and how bright it is now that you’re not blocking the sun.
Tomorrow I will be thinking about him. So tonight I’m thinking about you.

You may be thinking of him in the past but you must move on into your future, the future is where you are going, the past is what you have left behind. Always move forward.
Good words Maddy, welcome to MPS.
yes, we need to shed: to make room for the 'better' new
I'm drawn to your sparse non-abstracted style, so relatable and genuine, your writing reminds me of India Arie's songs, (not comparing your writing in skill or style), but for me at least: they both feature a unique quality, that triggers an instantaneous response - sometimes unwillingly, a truly wonderful gift for a creative creator, in any genre
keep sharpening your poetic skills while staying true to your unique voice, I am genuinely excited to read your future offerings
