Description

The past shows in the present, they say
and so does the present in future
But one question disturbs me,
Is my vision really premature?

All my life, I dream of a better tomorrow
A future undeterred by uncertainty,
Filled with the light of success,
Flowers of fortune showering plenty.

The ship of hope sails forever
In seach of a shore never seen
Days pass by, the journey never ends
Will I find the place where I've never been?

Do I want more? Am I done yet?
I ask myself time and again
and always get the wrong answer,
Its truly a difficult bargain

Am I asleep, still in the false dream?
trying in vain to envision the days ahead.
I live in a fantasy world
I go for work, but I lay all day in bed

I say, Tomorrow is an illusion
a pipe dream, a false perception.
Today, is the outspoken reality
Live in truth, not in deception.

One day my journey shall end,
My ship sunk, my work done.
But what good I do today alone
shall take me beyond the horizon.
