Brighten Today By Changing Tomorrow

Today a small hand grips a gun

Yesterday a small hand shook a rattle

 

Today a heart blackened by rage

Yesterday a heart thirsted for love

 

Today a mind lost in confusions abyss

Yesterday a mind hungered for knowledge

 

Today a soul wounded by constant torment

Yesterday a soul groped for the light of hope

 

Today a frigid pair of unrelenting eyes

Yesterday a warm pair of innocent eyes

 

Today, a bullet claims one life

Tomorrow, the chair of justice will take another

Yesterday, social complacency murdered two

I have been writing quite a number of years. I have been published numerous times and I have won several writing awards throughout the years. I won one for poetry just last year from a state contest through my college, the College of Central Florida. I graduated Magna Cum Laude from that same college in 2015 with a degree in Mass Communications. I now have a BA in Psychology from Saint Leo University and I am working on a Masters in Forensic Psychology at SNHU.
