Be Happy Now With What You Don't Have

There are things that you do,
Not for their immediate benefits,
But for some vague reward in the future,
Assuming fate does not fool with it,

Assuming circumstances stay the same,
With no variation from your plans,
And your heart doesn't change its tune,
About what it wants in the end.

And assuming the world doesn't suddenly,
Engage the chaos it forever threatens,
And you don't die tomorrow,
From some unseen circumstances.

And it's alright,
You can find peace in the goals of tomorrow.
Just enjoy the thought of your future rewards,
And you'll be happy for as long as they don't show.
