"You don’t ask people with knives in their stomachs what would make them happy; happiness is no longer the point. It’s all about survival; it’s all about whether you pull the knife out and bleed to death or keep it in."
- Nick Hornby


Yesterday
you stole from me
my sanity
my purity
my identity

 

Yesterday
is a broken promise
your tongue slipped
you couldn't keep
a simple vow

 

Yesterday
is a reminder
of how I've suffered
how I've labored
how I've cried

 

Yesterday
hurts.

 

But today
Today is mine.

 

Today is mine
to make the most of,
to enjoy,
to love,
to live again

 

Today is mine
and even if you've
infected my brain
you cannot steal
my day away.

 

Today is mine
and never again
will I let you hurt me
never again
will I take a promise

 

Today is mine
?and you can't take it.
