Live today as today.
Live today as if it were your last.
Because really, what is today but the tomorrow you worried
about yesterday?
Live today as today, 
And today we shall live.

Don’t worry about the past.
There is no point, we can not change it. 
Don’t dwell on yesterday.
Live today as today,
And today we shall live.

Don’t worry about the future.
We will cross that bridge when we come to it.
Forget anxiety or you will miss out on life.
Live in the present.
Live today as today, 
And today we shall live.

Some may call me a hypocrite.
I worry about yesterday.
I worry about tomorrow.
I waste today, now.
I am not a hypocrite. 
I am merely trying to teach others from my mistakes.
There is no day but today,
And today we shall live.

I'm not sure why, but I could see this poem being read at a church sermon or something... the head guy says the first part, and then everyone joins in, like a chorus, to say "Live today as today, And today we shall live." ...hey, I don't get how my mind works, either. That's just what I thought of. Nice poem though. I like the ever-subtle "Rent" theme. :-)
