Today
Is the day
Everything changes
In my life

I don’t want
Life to be what it has been
The last few months
More like years

But from thoses
Many hard years
Today I take will me
Many things

We paint our own pictures
And
We won’t know what it is until
Were gone

The hard things are
The stronger, fast,
Better, braver,
We come out

Life’s like a song
The people around us
Make the beat
You make your own lyrics

yesterday
Was the day
Everything changed

Lovely poem. Loved it, absolutely. Definitely applicable to our lives as teens. About to face the world. About to make ourselves into who we are. About to confront our identities and live them. I loved the part about life's a song. Your take on it was something I have never heard before, and I liked it. Great writing. 5/5. Would you please comment on my poems titled The Greatness of Tomorrow and a Lost Dream?
