The Banner Reads: But for Hope, All is Lost

hail! to the heartbroken.
departing sadly from those halcyon yesterdays.
what shall come of tomorrow?
as they press vainly onward.
for tomorrow is just another today
and today is but a sigh of yesterday.
an afterthought.
a last chance to get things right.
before fondly fluttering forward,
fervently forgetting it's loses
and repeating the same mistakes again.

these mistakes are mine to make
not a chasm of someone elses past.
i rend my days with my own two hands
and patch the nights with my tears.
failure or success is not of consequence,
for i will be here tomorrow regardless.
i'm here today.
none will stand in my way.
