Today

I've shut the door on yesterday,
Its sorrows and mistakes,
I've locked within its gloomy walls
Past failures and heartaches.

And now I throw the key away
To seek another room,
And furnish it with hope and smiles
And every springtime bloom.

No thought shall enter this abode
That has a hint of pain,
All worry, malice and distrust
Shall never therein reign.

I've shut the door on Yesterday
And thrown the key away -
The Future holds no doubt for me,
Since I have found Today!
