Apparently, Our Future Has Passed

by Glenn G   Dec 17, 2018


I try to look forward to tomorrow
While you want to look back on yesterday
I cherish our time alone
While you miss the kids
I want to get rid of the clutter
While you want to stock pile sentiment
I want new furniture
While you are comfortable with the broken in
I want to plan the future
While you want to relive the past
I want to make each day we have left count
While you want to stop counting the days
I don’t want to have wasted what life we have left
While you figure out where life has gone
