Love Poem: If Tomorrow

If Tomorrow

If tomorrow I could never see you again
What would I say to you today?

Would I tell you that I cannot live without you
Or the touch of  your lips on mine?

Would I tell you I would miss the feel of your hands …
The smell of your body  as you hold me in your arms?

Would I tell you that I cannot live without 
Your breath warm against my soft skin as you kiss me?

Would I tell you that my life would be empty and cold
Without you in it?
No smile to chase the chills away
No beautiful eyes to look into mine.

As I think of these things today
I know how lucky I am because…
Today I can tell you I love you
Today I can tell you how happy you make me
Today I can tell you my life has meaning with you in it

I am lucky because …
tomorrow you will still be here.
