Tomorrow- By Zainab Malik

Tomorrow

Every dawn with the rise of the daystar

Immerse and cleanse me in second chances

Fiercely gaze with possibility’s stare

Dear Tomorrow, as every day passes

Rekindled are my hope and certainty

Driven snow knows no one the likes of thee

Evening clouds blanket sins of yesterday

How merciful was the one who gifted thee

Stringed is the lyre with every soft step

Love is the artist and we are the art

Rose-colored glasses veil my dark thoughts kept

Subdue yesterday’s pain and numb my heart

With the evening setting evanescent sphere

Showered upon me your twinkling tears.
