Lost if Not for Yesterday

History gives a map of future’s way,

Left by those who sailed our waters yesterday.

Darkness hides deep below, naps in mystery,

While warnings flowed stray,

And now we question life beyond this day.

Our anchored hope, though veiled,

Claps at fear,

And waves victory

Where hearts now lay.

False hope exists alone for they

Who allow their soul to be lost and sink away.
