Array ( [sid] => 66540 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => trapped in today [time] => 2004-10-07 22:20:00 [hometext] => [bodytext] => Forever glimpsing the future
Yet never conceiving today
Just another torture
Just another masquerade

Time flows by undaunted by all men,
Taking things of here and now into then.
One promise is made, forever it is broken.
Time heeds not a word we have ever spoken.

With no respect for person or deed,
Time flies by with blinding speed.
Does time have a beginning? Does time have an end?
Is time my foe, or is time my friend?

Yesterday is gone and tomorrow never comes,
It is a constant reminder that seems to say:
Forever we are trapped, by the limits of today.
Waves of time crash upon or hearts,
Forever washing our hopes into the sea of another day

trapped in today

Forever glimpsing the future
Yet never conceiving today
Just another torture
Just another masquerade

Time flows by undaunted by all men,
Taking things of here and now into then.
One promise is made, forever it is broken.
Time heeds not a word we have ever spoken.

With no respect for person or deed,
Time flies by with blinding speed.
Does time have a beginning? Does time have an end?
Is time my foe, or is time my friend?

Yesterday is gone and tomorrow never comes,
It is a constant reminder that seems to say:
Forever we are trapped, by the limits of today.
Waves of time crash upon or hearts,
Forever washing our hopes into the sea of another day

Good poem-
no one is traped in today-
Remember if tommorrow ever came then there would be nothing to look foreward to.

Very interesting and thought provoking. We are so often trapped in today. But instead of that being forced upon us, I think that is the ignorant selfish choice society puts themselves in. How much better the world would be if we had a vision, a goal, a dream...? We should keep an eternal perspective. Nicely done. You got your point across quite clearly. I enjoyed it.
