A Love For My Tomorrow
I will love you for all my tomorrows,
yet, tomorrow I must let you go;
but I promise each day I will whisper your name,
oh yes, tomorrow will be difficult;
because my tomorrow will be without you,
and my heart tells me that cannot be true.
Tonight in my dream- we are kissing,
I feel so safe in your strong arms;
and all my sorrow you kiss away with your lips,
as we drift on a cloud of forever . . .
I am afraid, I whisper;
and you wipe away my tears.
If only I could change tomorrow into yesterdays,
but there is no going back;
tomorrow is our destiny.
Tomorrow I will be strong,
and pledge to you all my tomorrows;
because your will always be part of my heart,
in my pocket I have all the broken pieces;
all the shattered shards I will keep always,
for all my tomorrows yet to come.
After your funeral- I kissed your cold stone,
as snow fell like kisses and I whispered;
will love you my darling,
today, tomorrow and for eternity.
