Tomorrow

I keep waking up
Thinking I've rolled over and accidentally killed you
Killed my future
My little invention
I keep dreaming up
All these wonderful parallel lives
The Prime Minister of the biggest nation
The CEO of the greatest firm
The Partner to someone wonderful
Who knows what institutions will drive the world
If you will believe in those institutions
If you will have different boundaries
Different horizons
The only thing I can know
Is that every tree will grow new leaves
Every monsoon it will rain
And every day the sun will rise
Bringing with it
The promise of you
Building
My bloodline
My pride
And my legacy
