FAILED TO LEARN

I keep pushing things for tomorrow

And when tomorrow comes

it becomes a today

Days turned to months

and months to years

But then did this

make me fear

And now I am counting

my days

Trying to see years

in a gaze

Trying my best

in many ways

A good lesson I learnt

All my fingers I burnt

What goes never comes

With no doubt

this I do affirm

But did I change my thinking

I am still swimming

and sinking

Pushing things for tomorrows

With no guarantee

of morrows

Strange beings

are we

Knowing all

still refuse to see

I keep pushing things for tomorrow

And when tomorrow comes

it becomes a today.
