Today

 

Morning breaks.

The sun rises,

 only to fall again under its own weight.

You would must rather

whisper the hate you fell,

than scream of

the joy that tingles your lips.

 Yet it is the peace,

 I see the warmth that stays.

Hallow days

 thrown into the shadow of city lights.

 

No one hides amidst the truth,

 they only hide behind a veil of lies.

 

No one’s waiting,

 because their plans are in action.

 Why should we wait

 When today was yesterday’s tomorrow?

 

The sun rises making the shadows hide.

There are no lies to withhold.

Only the exposed, naked truth.

 

I’m exposed to all that might root.

The life and hurt that roots.

The weeds of life amidst of what I’ve sown

Waiting for the harvest.

Its about time I pull those weeds.

 

When looking outside I see

The Morning Glories bloom and the grass’ dew,

The bright shining sky alight.

 

Should I except today as not a mistake?

Or as a chance to set thing right,

to set my plans in motion.

Today is my day.

 

Today I will no

longer count my blights.

Today I will trust the Lord.

Today the Lord will be

my happiness.

Today is a new beginning.

This poem and the other ones you submitted were very good....but they did not meet the rules of the contest you entered them in...the contest is called "Anything Random" Only group members can participate...so im afraid that your either going to have to join the group or be disqualified...your poems are really good though :D
