Tomorrow will be to late. (dedicated to a friend passing.)

by Victoria   Jun 9, 2013


Tomorrow will be too late,
I wish it wasn't so,
I guess that's just fate,
And how unfair life can go...

I'll hold our yesterdays tight,
No one can take those away,
I'd put up a hell of a fight,
If God could of let you stay.

Why did you go like this?
You were so rare to find...
I hope you know, YOU, I miss...
And our memories replay in my mind.

Oh the number of dimes,
That I would have...it seems,
If I counted all the times,
I've wished this was just a bad dream...

Unfortunately, I'm not at sleep,
And this is all very much real..
Only memories I have to keep,
And the pain, from losing you, that I feel.

I've learned now to always expect,
That tomorrow may not be here,
Each words.. Spoke can have an affect,
So hold those close that are most dear.

But tomorrow is too late,
And oh, God how I wish that wasn't so...
My guess is only fate...
And how unfair life can go...

So I hold our memories so tight,
No one can take that away,
Know that, I'd put up one hell of a fight...
To have God grant you one more day.

    Beautiful poem, when we gain a soul on earth surely someone somewhere must lose one. And when we lose a friend here someone somewhere must gain. The cycle of life is a mystery, all we know and all we've learned leaves us asking questions. It is in us to search and ask, I enjoyed your write.

    First off, I'd like to say I'm very sorry for your loss and I send my condolences. I'm unsure if this is a relative, friend, or just a companion, but I am certain from reading your words he changed your life and you created many memorable moments.... This was such an emotionally-packed write and I feel the agony, just the surface of it, because I can't fathom what you're going through. I know most of us on here have lost a loved one, no matter if they are related or not, and I feel like it's impossible not to ask that question "why?" and praying for one more day....

    You have such strength and courage, I can tell from this write and I hope you know you're not alone. Stay strong and it sounds like you are blessed to have this person's memories and friendships with you alongside your journey of life.

    Take care & keep writing.
