Today

Is today
the same
as yesterday,
or will new
exciting things
happen today.
Will my heart
be caressed.
Will desires
be addressed...
today.
Or will today
be the same
as yesterday.

in my opinion, today is like yesterday as tomorrow will follow

but I'm in a bad mood lately

I try to think we can make things change and make new things happen for ourselves

hard to keep a positive attitude though

Thank you Robert and passing shadows for the nice responses.
Passing, although things happen all the time, it is too easy to believe that all things will happen according to our plans or desires...sometimes you just have to step back and watch things unfold...to receive all that we want is not reality, to be able to accept what happens around us, some in our favor and some in anothers favor, is the reality...James

Yep, I like this lots.

Will my heart
be caressed.
Will desires
be addressed...

I really like how those lines fit so beautifully in the middle.
