Today

by Chad Picard   Apr 28, 2007


To have this moment last a lifetime
if it must not last forever
To remain within today
and throw away tomorrow

If we could live as mayflies
whose whole life spans a day
Hold close, each to the other
for what would seem forever
living only for today

To keep our skins in contact
and each to feel the other heart's vital beating
would we be wise to live
for today alone?
and worry not for tomorrow?
