"Tomorrow will be better."

Maybe tomorrow won't include my lack of happiness.

Maybe tomorrow won't include my never-ending state of despair.

Maybe tomorrow a genie from out of this world will come to me and grant me three wishes.

Maybe tomorrow I'll wish for a time machine.

Maybe tomorrow I'll go back and fix all my regrets.

Maybe tomorrow I'll go back and relive my childhood.

Maybe tomorrow I'll go back to a time where I was happy.

Maybe tomorrow I'll stay stuck in the past.

Maybe tomorrow I won't have to go

back into this hell of a reality.

But right now, I'm stuck.

Not in the past—

But the present.
