Your fears will wilt,
Your pain will soothe;
Your regrets will sink,
Your chance will come.
Today is a present,
So be not afraid to open it.
Because what's inside is a gift,
For tomorrow never comes,
And yesterday is always past.
You are your best hope,
You are your nightmares' foe,
Already you are life's joy.
