Just Like Yesterday

I wish I could be happy just like yesterday

With no worries and no care I was just fine

Old is gold but present may be better

Alas! Why I ignore this very fact?

With regret and shame, I open Pandora’s Box

And, then I wonder what goes wrong in the present!

It’s dark, it’s scary and I fear to take a step

The present is tarnished by my past!

Yesterday is no more but the present is

Why should I lament and repent over those bygone days?

Setting aside the mourning and learning from the past

I can still shape my present as I want.

Nothing seems to change but everything changes

For change is the only constant in life

Embracing each moment with open arms

Therefore, should give me wings to soar high!
