All the world continuing on its way
while the working world silently passes the day.
Cars speeding, plummeting towards their destinations
without thought for the journey.

Mindless zombies, unquestioningly doing
Living for the world of "someday"
waiting for that fateful "When I can..."
Fifty years down the road
giving no thought to
Now.

The world of today
looking towards the joys of the future
Blinded to the joys offered by the present.
Blinded....

If I die now
What will I leave behind me?
A legacy of "might have"s
A trail of possibilities but
Nothing substantial.

In living for tomorrow
what do we accomplish today?
Waiting
and nothing more.
