BITTERSWEET

Oh how I grieve for yesterday,
That day, when all that ever could become,
Of joy and satisfaction, spent,
And gone, forever lost because
I could not see beyond myself,
And know the priceless treasure
Of the moment, so rich in opportunity,
To give and to receive
The love of life, the very breath of being,
With all the sweetness possible
From sight and sound,
Of taste and smell,
And touch,
Oh god how much
I miss that
Which is past.

But then, perhaps,
If I can just hold to,
A moment still to come,
I may yet get to know, to find,
The truth of now, and savour full
With every bristling pore,
With every heightened sense,
With every draft into my very self,
What I did grieve for yesterday.
