If I knew it would be the last time...

........................


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 see you walk out the door,
I would give you a hug and kiss
and call you back for one more.


If I knew it would be the last time
I'd hear your voice lifted up in praise,
I would video tape each action and word,
so I could play them back day after day.


If I knew it would be the last time,
I could spare an extra minute or two
to stop and say "I love you,"
instead of assuming you would KNOW I do


If I knew it would be the last time
I would be there to share your day,
well I'm sure you'll have so many more,
so I can let just this one slip away.


For surely there's always tomorrow
to make up for an oversight,
and we always get a second chance
to make everything right.
There will always be another day
to say our "I love you's,"


And certainly there's another chance
to say our "Anything I can do's?"
But just in case I might be wrong,
and today is all I get,
I'd like to say how much I love you
and I hope we never 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,
Tell them how much you love them
and that 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.
Send this to all that you consider a friend.
Just to let them know how much you care about them.
You never know, you
may not see them tomorrow.

So let them know how much they mean to you.

هلابك يالطموح
نورتي خيتي

اللغه ماله شغل بالدفاره
كل الدعوى ممارسه ومتابعه للمتحدثين الرسميين منذ الصغر :21:

نوورتي بطلتك حبوبه :11:

Hi There
Actually, I don't like it. It seems like just words together. However, I like who brings it to us
;)

[hemo0o]

it was so sad but i have read sadder than that ...but this poem make me remember things i want to forget it but it still hanging on me any way i think the author was so much sad that day

[ارتـــواء.]

So let them know how much they mean to you.


That what I always say to my self, but never done!l
It is so hard to think about every minute as the last one; you do not know what to do, what to say, and how to express your feeling!l,

I do not know when the time will come to tell them all what I have for them in my heart, hope I live till that!l



Great thank dear for such poem,,l
