What if today is your last day
Would you be ok
With the last thing you said
Is anything else you wanted to say
Right here at the starting line
Coming close to the finish line
Are you happy with all you’ve done
Can you say it’s been good, it’s been fun
In a blink of an eye, all can change, are you ready or do you want to stay?
If only we had that choice for when our time is up
It’s not that easy, but don’t give up
The next time we complain, get angered or upset
Remember someone out there is dealing with something worse
Losing their life, losing a parent or a child
Someone struggling with addiction, no food or shelter
Battling cancer or another disease, legs amputated at the knees
Fighting for their life, saving our lives
Behavioral or mental disabilities
Battling demons inside
Not saying “I love you” will be a regret
Don’t take your life and love for granted, you will never forget
Let yesterday be in the past
Embark a new a journey that will last
Take care of yourself and love what you have
You may never know when it’ll be your last...
