The Anthem of Tomorrow
Tomorrow is a dream.
We invented time, you know.
We crafted tomorrow in
the forges of our imagination.
We needed it to carry on.
Since the beginning
we have needed hope.
Hope that the next 24 hours
could somehow be
a brand new start.
That the rest of our lives
truly did begin
the moment we arose.
And even though we know the truth
Lying's a small price to pay
To believe that we can finally
Begin again tomorrow.
Or, that's what I thought
then.
But now...
Now I am beginning to see
that even though
the past won't flee
that we can't undo
everything-
we can start again
we do begin again
every moment.

I appreciate that the sentences are short, it gives the move a click, clack movement like a horse. A revolutionary horse! I particularly like the line: "That the rest of our lives
truly did begin
the moment we arose"
I imagine a rose unfurling, because of the similarity of the word arose, and a rose. Keep it up!
