Poetry: Today

by Rivs Aikman

Created on: July 20, 2010

Today is the start of something new

A renaissance in my life

An effort to stop being

And start doing


So much of my life is steeped in regret

Like a bitter tea I don't care to drink

So I swallow my pride 

And I try again


Today is a beginning 

Today I choose to fight

Today I choose to be

Today I choose to move


Today was a tomorrow yesterday

And tomorrow will be today again

And if I fail today, I won't despair

Because it will be today again tomorrow
