    But Not Today

    Someday I'll smile and catch the sun
    Can't let you know that you have won
    Someday I'll throw out your letters to me
    Say good bye to each sweet memory
    Someday I'll forget your tender kiss
    Stop thinking about the love I missed
    Someday ....
    But not today.....

    Someday I'll toss out your old fishing hat
    Give away your old baseball and bat
    You left so much when you slammed the door
    I don't even know who I am anymore
    Someday I'll toss your old favorite shirt
    And smile and pretend that it doesn't hurt
    Someday.....
    But not today....

    Someday I'll wake up and not think of you
    I'll finally accept that we are through
    Someday I'll forget to shed a tear
    Not remember you holding me near
    Someday I'll wake up and see the sun
    And then think maybe I have won
    Someday.......
    But not today.......

    SOMETIMES WE CLING, TO A SWEET MEMORY.. FRINGED IN PAIN, AND TRAGEDY...

    The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

    Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
