​Tomorrow has no choice:
It must come,
even if it could wish to stay away from
​what it will be.

​...

Looking up from the present into the future,
we see it
approaching, not hurrying, not slowing
down, regardless

of our fears or hesitation;
our holding on
to wishing it away or over with:

'No!'

​No good willing this moment to be longer & outlast
the rest. 
Tomorrow pushes
it back
​
and arrives,

after multiple warnings and
in spite of
all our preparation,

still turning out to be
the tomorrow
we never thought would come. 

It
​has no choice.
