Preparation for Future

Yesterday kissed faintly at
the back of my shoulder
But, I awoke in the arms of Present

Present brought forth gifts,
opportunities— that Yesterday
couldn't afford to spare me

Yesterday was older than
Present, and I suppose I had a
thing for maturity

Because, I missed the lessons
Yesterday taught me
Although both were preparing me—

For you, my darling Future
They craved your excellence
I can only hope you don't disappoint
