Yesterday or Tomorrow?

Yesterday is history
Tomorrow remains a mystery



I choose yesterday for the blissful times
I choose yesterday, for the wonderful chimes



I choose yesterday to revel in the past
I choose yesterday so my love can last



I choose yesterday never to miss
I choose yesterday cause I can't let go of the bliss



Yesterday is history
Yet tomorrow remains a mystery



I choose tomorrow for the adventure
I choose tomorrow for the new venture



 

I choose tomorrow for the time that comes
I choose tomorrow for the time it runs 



I choose tomorrow for the mysteries
I choose tomorrow to forget the ghastly histories



Yesterday is history
Yet tomorrow remains a mystery



After reading this, tell me, what would you choose? Tomorrow or Yesterday and WHY?

That was a unique and very thought out poem. If I had to choose, I would choose tomorrow. I like to think ahead and be prepared for what tomorrow brings.

Priya Joyce

am gonna choose yesterday...there have been many special moments!!

not tomorrow coz..I haven't seen it...

Keshi

I'd choose TODAY, cos that's all I really HAVE. :)

Keshi.

Keshi

I know u didnt hv TODAY in ur qn... but I dun hv YESTERDAY with me cos its already gone, neither do I hv TOMORROW with me cos I dun even know if it'll come. So, that leaves me only TODAY.

Keshi.

Adi

Its just tomorrow for me.... yesterday to beet gaya, if i wasted that time i can do nothing about it.
Kal ho naa ho, i will want to see the surprises life brings me, may it be good or bad.

♥ÐÅyÐяєÅмє®♥

reminded me of our kahavat

aaj kare so kaal kar..kal kare so parso...
inni jaldi kya hai bidu ..jeena hai toh barso :P

but still...heheheheh
jokes apart..it was nicely written...

Toon Indian

actually I chose present..because the Past is gone and the future hasn't arrived..this moment is a gift..which is why it's called PRESENT.

nice poem!!

Meghna

@ DOn- Thanks!! Poetry- a guy thing?? Till now I had heard it was a psychic thing :P
Just kidding :)

Meghna

@ Priscila- Sure!

Meghna

@ Shawn- Thanks :)
That shows you are a courageous adventure seeking and enthusiastic person :)

Meghna

@ Priya- Awww....so sweet....I wish we all could time travel :)

Meghna

@ Keshi- That's okay :)
I guess everyone would choose today, sot hat's the reason I wanted to know why yesterday or tomorrow :)

Meghna

@ Adi- Right!! Kal ho na ho :)

Meghna

@ Anirudh- Thanks!!
Yesteryear rhymes?

Meghna

@n Sourish bhaiya- It isn't a kahavat...it's a Kabir ka doha jisse aapne bigaad diya LOL! :D
LOL!

Jokes apart- thanks :)

Meghna

@ Rahul- True!! But there were only two options bro :P

Lena

very thoughtful one, Meghna..
i guess still i would go with tomorrow since yesterday cant be changed and it is way too easy to get lost or stuck in the past..i would love to move forward :)

Ayaki

My English teacher instructed me 2 leave comments on other blogs outside of our school so here it is:

Meghna,

My first visit to your space. I navigated from your namesake's posts.

You write well with clarity. I really enjoyed the A - Z post, LOL on those two tomatoes, am with you on UGG and remember Past is gone, tomorrow is yet to come, it is today which matters. One should let past be past but learn from mistakes, keep fond memories. Keep future in mind but not as a worry. Concentrate on today which matters and can mould your future.

If you find time do visit me. I write here also under the same name but I am giving link of space where I started blogging.

Take care

Meghna

@ Lena- A bit, I agree, but not more than yours:P
That's true. I wish you all the success :)

Meghna

@ Ayaki- Hey! Welcome here....are you on a project or something?Regards to your teacher too.
Thanks! Am glad you liked it!

Meghna

@ Niceguy- hey...welcome here. I earnestly hope you enjoyed the read :)
I'll certainly give you a visit soon!
I know what you say is true. Today is the day but what would you choose out of tomorrow or yesterday?
I'm so glad you liked them all!

Anirudh 'Lallan' Choudhry

yesteryear rhymes matlab.. mere bahut pehle ke likhe hue poems...!!

Swetha Padakandla

swetha :)

Toon Indian

ok...then I guess will choose future!!

Old Monk

A well written poem. Given a chance, I think I will choose yesterday, today and tomorrow. Yesterday for helping me realize my mistakes and giving me so much to remember, today for giving me a chance to correct myself and tomorrow for that fine ray of hope.

Cinderella

Umm..I am too selfish, I want all ! Yesterdays for the cherished moments, today cz thats all I have right this moment, n tomoro cz theres so much I still havent done !!!

Yeah, you can call me greedy.

Meghna,

I had already said I will keep fond memories of yesterdays and for secure & happy tomorrow I will strive today.

Take care

Meghna

@ Monk- That's truly well said and so much honest! I wish we all really had the power to do so :)

Kartz

I am the quintessential realist. And I choose today. Which, as you well know, is what we call the *present*.

To answer you, though, I choose yesterday to learn from. And tomorrow, to embrace, come what may...

Peace. Have a nice day.
