If Tomorrow Never Comes

By fantastix

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

If tomorrow never comes My last thought tonight would be of you Not of your angelic face, nor your gentle voice Just your words and promise that kept me safe Your heart opened up and let my sorrows live inside If clouds forever loom over my sunshine May your smile be my rainbow If forever ended yesterday May your shadow watch over me in peaceful slumber If my voice echos endlessly Singing towards the gates of God May he remember your name Watching over you as I'd hoped to If tomorrow never comesI wrote this for Nick, he had gone away for a while and I hoped he would come back. However there is something ironic about the date of this poem. September 11, 2001 was an earth shattering, life changing event. It made everyone thin about today and tomorrow and forever. This poem is dedicated to all those who never got to say goodbye. Written September 10th, 2001 © on Apr 20 2002 01:49 PM PST   0 • 8
