We must live our life in the "Now"

Yesterday is a passing dream
And promises time cannot vow
Tomorrow is never guaranteed
The time to live is now

With our thoughts on the past or the future
We can’t appreciate today
Right now is all we have
For tomorrow we can only pray

Our visions and dreams inspire us
And memories will always last
But we can’t live in the future
And we can’t live in the past

Right now I’m living my life
And every moment I want to enjoy
The past and the future don’t matter right now
Those thoughts will only destroy

Love your lyrical style of writing. I am a big fan of lyrical poetry and that's the way I write as well. Nice job on this one. Great flow, easy to understand, perfectly explains the way we should live our lives.
