TOMORROW NEVER COMES
If I knew it would be the last time that I'd see you fall asleep,
I would tuck you in more tightly, and pray the Lord your soul to keep.
If I knew it would be the last time that I'd see you walk out the door,
I would give you a hug and kiss, and call you back for just one more.
If I knew it would be the last time I'd hear your voice lifted up in praise,
I would tape each word and action, and play them back throughout my days.
If I knew it would be the last time, I would spare an extra minute or two,
To stop and say "I love you", instead of assuming you know I do.
So just in case tomorrow never comes, and today is all I get,
I'd like to say how much I love you, and I hope we never will forget.
Tomorrow is not promised to anyone, young or old alike,
And today may be the last chance you get to hold your loved one tight.
So if you're waiting for tomorrow, why not do it today?
For if tomorrow never comes, you'll surely regret the day.
That you didn't take that extra time for a smile, a hug, or a kiss,
And you were too busy to grant someone, what turned out to be their one last wish.
So hold your loved ones close today, and whisper in their ear,
That you love them very much, and you'll always hold them dear.
Take time to say "I'm sorry", "Please forgive me", "Thank you", or "It's okay",
And if tomorrow never comes, you'll have no regrets about today.

This is the best poem i've ever read.. and i love it very very much.. where did i read it from? its from lynn's book that she bought from KL in her last trip.. the book's title is "An hour to live, an hour to love". It's a very nice book with the true and sad story.. T_T anyway, thanks lynn for lending me her precious book home to finish it.. and for those people who read this post.. remember to tell your loved one, "I love you", even though usually people would say this word is very hard to utter out from their mouth.. this 3 words could be mean so much for your someone.. much more meaningful than materials.. so? what are you waiting for? praise and thanks the Lord for giving us another day to see this beautiful world..
--if you had an hour to live and could make just one phone call, who would you call? what would you say? and why are you waiting?--
This is just me, myself, and I
