Tomorrow will be the same as today
The laughter will not cease from the lips of a child
The tears will no longer fall from the eyes of Angels
The Anger of the Devil will be nothing more than a memory
Tomorrow everything will be the same
I know this
For I will get to see the smile on your face
I get to be the one to ease the pain of a crying soul
I get to be the one to hold you close, as the tears flow down your face
I get to be the one to listen to you breathing
As we lay awake in our bed
Held close to you
Knowing you will never let me go
But the day after tomorrow will change the soul forever
For it is not your smile I see
It is not the sound of your heart beating I hear in the silence of my mind
It is not your eyes I wipe the tears from
It is not the laughter I hear pouring from your lips
I can tell you why
Because you are gone.
Gone forever
Never to come back
Tomorrow will never be the same for me
Without you, my soul will cry
The tears of the Angels will fall like rain
The memories of the Devil will play on the minds of the lost
And the laughter of the children shall cease into the nothingness of lonliness
So how can we say that Tomorrow everything will be the same?
When we never know when the last breath of our lives will be taken from us?

Hi Chelsea:
I like the raw emotion expressed in this poem. You write well, and you write about your emotions extremely well. I would say, that this flows, then stops, then flows again...was this intentional? (To show the difference between tomorrow and the day after tomorrow?) It works, interesting read.
Happy Trails!

Yes your work is wonderful. I should have read them in the order you wrote them. Everything is going to get eaiser to handle with time! good Job again, Thanks, Anthony
Again, a very nice, emotional, deep write. I like it a lot. I can really place myself into the feeling of the write. My sister's best friends husband was taken from her in Iraq and I can feel the pain she must have in your writings. And the pain my sister may have had since their husbands where in the same unit/place. Please, write more. I love to read your work.
I liked the flow and the images (real and imagined). Sadness surfaces in many a varied form. Sometimes it's obnoxiously angry, and like here... sometimes it's just sadly present. :-)
