Opaque Tomorrow. A Poem By O.b.i

The bliss that comes with this ignorance

And the uneasiness it brings

To know that we share this limitation with kings

Gives us a feeling of temperance



The event of the swinging pendulum in a distance

Is known only when it swings

It could bring smiles or terminate this existence

Our faith lies with time just like the bird’s with its wings



As we walk this path of unknown distance

Uncertain of what the bell of the last breath brings

We just prepare like a troubadour gathering his things

And hope we are favoured by chance

Because when tomorrow has not come, no one can take a glance
