Live like today is the last day you'll see me.
Cause you never know when the day will come,
Where I will have to go.
One day I could be standing happily by
Your side, and the next day I could be gone,
And you could be wipeing tears from your eyes.
Nobody can see the future, or what it may hold,
But we can see today, and live and try to make it stay.
Every moment is like a picture, it can last forever.
So everyday take a picture let the good times stay,
And the let the bad days fade away.
Live with me in the present,
Dream with me the future,
And forget with me the past,
The good can stay with us,
But let the bad fade fast.
Forget the bad yesturdays,
And remember only the good.
Let go of the mistakes, don't rub them in my face.
Instead let's live for today.
Like its the last of our days,
Like it's the last time,
You'll ever see my face.
Treasure everyday,
Save every memory,
Cause it could be our last day.
So please Remember me.
Author's Notes/Comments:
This poem came out of no where. I had no clue the purpose or meaning of it, it was just words appearing in my mind, and words across my page. But after I was finished and read it over and over again, I relized there is a meaning.
Life is too short, and we all are famous for running through life at top speed, not thinking, not believing, not breathing, and not seeing much of anything. And life is too short, and it made me stop and think that I would hate to not stop as much as I do, to not always slow down, to not walk. I'd hate to one day die, and my friends and family cry, and be pained, and feel like " oh we spent the last year fighting over stupid shit, I wish I wouldn't have, I wish we would have stopped and just talked" or " I kept pushing our girls night out, or a outing, cause I didn't want to make time" and I'd hate to do that to someone else, cause we aren't promised tomarrow, only today. So make every day count, save every memory, take many pictures, and keep them. Memory's truely are pictures. For us all to go back and look through them, so we don't forget. Live like today is your last, save every memory, cause it may be the last time you see them, or talk to them. Cause you never know, where they could be tomarrow.
That's my message, and what I got from this random poem. I hope it makes others think as well.
Some excellent advice

Dang girl!
Wow Elfy. That is really a good poem, and I'm not just saying that, truely! I actually could tell from what you wrote, that life as we know it can end in a split second, and never go back to what we want to change, or to keep alive. And although it seemed like it was just a poem that came out of no where, it was probably something that has been in the back of your mind for a while now, and you just now got the words that you needed to be able to spell it out.
Great poem, love!
