It is a lonely walk
into tomorrow
to leave today behind
and know yesterdays no longer

It is a lonely walk
to leave behind
those as were known yesterday
including me

And it is not me that waits in tomorrow
not me of yesterday
or today
I do not know the me that waits there
I have not yet met that me

It is a lonely walk
and full of unknowing
for only what was can be surely known
And what decision can be surely made
but by deciding to try and test
and then to decide anew again

For it to remain now
and to grasp at before
seems sometimes easier
But the Universe will have it not

It comes tomorrow
and I step
It is a lonely walk
