30 Hours Till Now

It's never now
Only soon
It's never now
Only then
It's never now
Only someday
Maybe
If you're good

It's wishes never granted
It's prayers never answered
It's dreams never fulfilled
It's promises never kept.
It's a half ass job
With a lantern hung on it

Seeds unplanted
Crops unreaped
Playgrounds during rainstorms
An insomniac without sleep
Words unspoken
And video game tokens
Rattling in a drawer

Opportunity
Possibility
Potentiality
