If Tomorrow

This is a poem I had originally posted a while ago, but unfortunately, I guess when the site was having complications-someone was able to remove it from the list of my poems...So, here I am reposting it again....Hope you vote and comment...God Bless All.

If to-morrow- you decide to pack to go
If to-morrow isn't gentle for you to stay
If to-morrow causes you to bleed
If to-morrow - life seems too much to handle
If to-morrow you cannot wake up
I will be by your side

If to-morrow life makes love a little bit more UN-baring
If to-morrow will cause you to make decisions
If to-morrow one decision does not fit
If to-morrow your soul cannot keep up
If to-morrow you find your soul seeking something new
I will be by your side

If to-morrow you decide that you no longer need me
If to-morrow make you realize that I am the cause of the pain
If to-morrow makes you see that my existence can no longer be present in your existence
I will stand by your side
But please speak truth to me
At all time
If to-morrow will cause you to speak your heart to me
If to-morrow is the day to decide to be free
If to-morrow is the day to let go of the past
Then
Hold my hands gently; look straight into my eyes
Do not blink
Let to-morrow be the day to letting me go
In that old fashioned way
Though you leave
As a shadow I will stand by you

If to-morrow is not so kind
If to-morrow does not agree with what you feel
Force to-morrow to understand
If to-morrow asks you to wait
If to-morrow will ask of you to confess all
As a shadow I will stand by your side

If to-morrow will make you question all that you seek
Spend not too much time trying to convince what tomorrow might consists
I assure you, for tomorrow will not understand
nor to-morrow will care
For to-morrow seeks to please only itself
Seek nothing but your inner soul
And
As a shadow I will stand by your side

If to-morrow will be your strength
if to-morrow the sun will shine
if to-morrow all consists nothing but good for you
then
let tomorrow be your medicine
that will possess for you energy and strength to accompany all that needs you
if to-morrow is the chance to start bright and new
then let nothing of today hinder the thoughts that gear towards
to-morrow
My friend, My lover, My husband, My companion
Know this
whatever tomorrow might bring for your eyes to see
for your heart to feel
for your hands to touch
for your emotions to stir
I will as a human flesh
I will as a spirit
I will as a shadow
stand by you
....
....
.....
I will stand by you
