Tomorrow Doesn't Belong To Me

by The Angel of Secrets   Aug 11, 2008


A life is supposed to be filled with a thousand different experiences,
A human goes through it all, being perfect and being a mess.
Each and every individual granted with their very own fate,
Live a life of love or a life of hate.

I sit in my bed and watch the rain pour,
Wondering what my future has in store.
Will there be time to make my dreams come true?
Will there be a time I'm brave enough to say "I love you"?

Questions asked without out answers to hear,
Nothing to suit my darkest fear.
Will there be time for me to get the courage to tell you what I feel?
To let you get to know me, inside my heart for real?

I need time to be able to process what I bare,
And do things now I know I'd never dare.
I need time to love; I need time to forgive,
Just another moment, please, I need time to live.

Life is more precious because we know it's going to end,
I don't have much more strength, and I need a loving friend.
Times is slipping away from me, and I'm disappearing without a trace,
And you never even saw the tears fall down my face.

Give me the strength to walk in the rain,
Give me the courage to take on the pain.
Don't tell me it's useless, because I've told myself before
Please give me the passion to write just once more.

All the times I've cried and begged to see another day,
There's so much I want to do, so much I need to say.
All the times I've hoped just to get another tomorrow,
Make me feel happiness and rid me of my sorrow.

I'm terrified and frightened, I don't want to die,
I'm afraid of missing out, afraid of saying goodbye.
Don't tell me I just need to take a deep breath,
I'm running for my life and I'm scared to death.

There's so much I need to hear, but I don't have the time.
Just tell me you love me, forever isn't mine.
I'm here in this moment, what you get is what you see,
Just tell me I'm beautiful. Tomorrow doesn't belong to me.

    I like the ideas in this poem a lot, however I think the vocab could be a bit stronger and the rhymes a bit sharper. Also, watch for the use of some words such as 'mess' in the first stanza, it throws off the poem a bit.
    With your rhyme, I'm talking more about how sometimes the rhymes are expected. As in rain and pain, tomorrow and sorrow, feel and real. Perhaps mix it up a little in future with more vocab.

    Other than those small things I did like this a lot, it had pretty good flow from the rhyme, not so much the line lengths. I think this belongs in the life category more than the sad becuase the begining really feels as though it should be there, whereas the end is only a little sad.
    Also, I like some of your lines a lot, especially the title, it's unique.
    Good work, 5/5

    Wow!!i really liked this poem. it really made me think! you worded it perfectly!!
    these lines were really touching and I felt I could relate:
    "Times is slipping away from me, and I'm disappearing without a trace,
    And you never even saw the tears fall down my face"
    you used great words to describe yourself. I loved the ending:
    "I'm here in this moment, what you get is what you see,
    Just tell me I'm beautiful. Tomorrow doesn't belong to me."
    very powerful. great work. really enjoyed it. 5/5 keep it up :o) xo.
