Past, Present, and Future

Yesterday I looked in the past
At all my mistakes and embarrassments
When I sang the wrong note
Or tripped in front of my crush
Today I look to the present
Not fighting what will happen
Tomorrow I'll look ahead
Into my future
Of friends, family, money, and jobs
Of what's in life for me
Yesterday, today, and tomorrow
I looked/look/will look 
Into the past, present, and future

  • Today's Fears

    Teens are afraid
    We worry
    Do I look okay?
    What do they think of me?
    We obsess over how we look
    We worry that we're not thin enough
    We think we need to be skinny and perfect to fit into todays society 
  • In the distance

    In the distance
    Lies a magical fantasy land 
    Where objects talk 
    And dragons fly
    Where dreams come true
    The clouds are cotton candy
    The trees are made of chocolate 
    It's an escape from reality
  • As the Sun Begins to Rise

    As the sun begins to rise
    The birds stretch their wings and wake everyone up with their singing
    The foxes and wolves yawn and stretch
    Ready to look for their next meal 
    As the sun climbs the sky
