Yesterday wasn't hard, stressful, sad, angry, or happy.
Yesterday was hell.
Yesterday was slitting your wrists and not knowing when to stop.
Yesterday was hiding in a corner of your room with swollen eyes, a squeezing heart.
Yesterday was falling asleep because you knew your dreams would take you somewhere good. Yesterday bleeds, cries, screams, hurts.
Today isn't hard, stressful, sad, angry, or happy.
Today is different.
Today is crying when you see him with someone else.
Today is having your friends stand by you.
Today is having coffee to get you through the day.
While yesterday bleeds, cries, screams, hurts.
Tomorrow won't be hard, stressful, sad, angry, or happy.
Tomorrow will be perfect.
Tomorrow will be laughing with the people you love.
Tomorrow will be new houses, new adventures, new memories to share with your friends.
Tomorrow will be falling asleep after late-night discussions about meaningless topics.
Tomorrow will sing, laugh, dance, and play.
