May I urge you to seize the day?
Yesterday was the owner and breeder of a restless sleep
Tomorrow is a promise of forgotten wishes
And 'someday' is an era of unsweetened dreams.
Yesterday's gone, and tomorrow never fades.


I like each line alone... but I don't know how they fit together... anybody got an idea? Title would be nice too... I don't like "Yesterday" much.

Each individual line sounds good, but they do fit together very nicely in my opinion. I really suck at titles, so I can't really help ya there...nice write though.

I like how the first line is a question.
I like this line the best "someday is an era of unsweetened dreams." Poets have the ability to see things for what they are..I think this is a gift. You have a gift.
Great piece. A little on the short side..but I like it that way.

Hey there! I agree with everyone in the sense that all of the lines fit well just as they are. This was a great poem. Have a spiffy day!
