I’ll sing this somber serenade for all eternity…
Time…
the essence of life.
the link to the past, present and future.
the seconds to the minutes to the hours to the days to the weeks to the months to the years.
…eternity.
What if time were to speed us by…or if it came to an abrupt halt? What if time escalated and left our souls to idle by? What if we did not have enough time to fufill our mortal desires…or savour the transcendental moments of our life?
What would you do if all you had was sixty minutes left of your creatural time before you departed for the spiritual realm?
Would you continue to live the remaining minutes as normal as possible?
Would you throw caution to the wind and start living precariously with no inhibitations?
Would you gather the courage to tell that someone how much you love them?
Would you make amends for your trespasses?
Would you leave with any regrets?
Would you wish…for more time?
What would you do?
If tomorrow I should never wake up…
If tomorrow I should never wake up
I wanted to say thank you…
If you and I were once friends
even if it was for a little bit,
thank you for teaching me about understanding and growing up,
teaching me how to move on.
Thank you for the times we had together
and I beg you to forgive me for
whatever happened that tore us apart.
And if we are still best friends
know that I treasure that relationship too.
Through the highs and the lows,
you stood by me and I you.
And if I never said it before,
thank you for being a big part of my life.
If it wasn’t for you,
I would be a completely different person
and well…I am happy with how I have turned out so far.
If me and you only talked once in a while
and didn’t go to the same parties,
and were not good friends;
thank you for not humbling me,
or tearing me down.
I only wish I had taken the chance to love you more.
If you were someone I once had a crush on,
I always did admire how you treated people
how you lived your life
I admire how you always seemed to know the right thing to say
even if it was never directed to me.
Thank you for making me believe
that there might be someone perfect for me
even if it isn’t you…
just to let you know that I even thought I loved you.
If you were someone I had fallen in love with
thanks for all the memories
good or bad…I still treasured them.
You had once brought sunshine to my life
even when there storms,
you were the one who made everything seemed okay again…
and I had once lived for you.
If you are someone who continues to play a significant role in my life,
know that I am a better person now
because of your unadulterated love for me.
I see the sun in your smile
and the sky through your eyes
and I treasure every moment spent with you.
Each day I count my blessings
and marveled at how our friendship blossomed into so much more
and if I had to make a choice all over again,
know that I would not have done anything different…
that you will still be the person I choose to spent the rest of my life with.
I love you and always will.
If tomorrow I should never wake up
I wanted to say I am sorry.
Sorry for what I have done
and for what I have not done.
I could have done more
I should have done more
You are not perfect
and neither am I…
If tomorrow I should never wake up
that is all I want to say just because I never had time to…
