Yesterday Took Away My Joy

But Today

By poetryinwaitingPublished 4 years ago 1 min read

Worry, worry, worry,

but that's not my whole story.

You see, yesterday happened and took away my joy,

yes, yesterday happened and took away my joy.

He's gone, there's no more uses,

I've caught the bluest-blue-blues.

Another day passes, but I can't sleep.

No, all I seem to do is weep.

Sleep-deprieved and lonely,

like a ghost, 24-hours tick by.

So again, today, my routine goes on,

but I can't seem to shake that with Him I belong.

Three days now seem like three-hundred,

I've caught the case of "perpetually-dissundered".

But today as I slomp into my kitchen,

I see my Shining Armour unhidden!

Curious how He got in so quietly,

but laughing takes over obnoxiously!

"How did you get here?"

"Oh I've missed you, my dear!"

After a smile and a snug embrace,

He hands me a delicious egg-filled plate!

Why had I been so worried?

The Man I thought was long-gone buried,

from head to toe, I've been dressed in black,

thinking he'd never come back,

is right beside me, holding me close,

yes today, He's beside me, holding me close.

So there's no more to our story,

no more worry, worry, worry.

I love all things writing...though I am particularly biased towards good, vulnerable poetry. I love pouring my heart on a page with every piece I write. Life is for expressing, not containing.
