Poems: Brighter Tomorrow

I don't remember when I wrote this one. In between relationships when I was a teenager, I think. At least, it was in the filing cabinet with the other poems I wrote as a teenager.

The breeze is brisk and yet it's still warm,
Now I can see what once was a storm.
Hopes, dreams, and promises never intended to hold,
Will see a new day and tomorrows untold.
 
I can see a new hope for the things that might be,
Even if we cannot quite agree.
We're growing stronger with each new breath,
We can rise above all the sadness and death.
 
I'll try more to listen and not always speak,
You should try too, it won't make you weak.
Share life with me, when it's all said and done,
And we'll find the peace of a new day begun.
 
We'll travel together, what a delight,
When we no longer worry who's wrong and who's right.
We'll fix our problems, we'll look within,
And come to the day when we love again.
 
With wishes and merriment in that day anew,
We'll make our lives about me and you.
Leave behind the trials and all of the sorrows,
And we will soon find a brighter tomorrow.
