If I Had

If all I had was... A heartbeat left to live, would I waste it? I would watch my son laugh one last time, I would hold my beloved in one last embrace, I would reminisce with my family one last time, But who knows what I would do? So I live with a smile, I live with no judgement, I live with hope. I hope that time is not cruel, I hope that time respects me, I hope that time is my companion. For my days... I will try to make them long, I will try to fill them with moments of joy, And I will try to fill them with love. If all I had was... A heartbeat left to live, I would live in that moment forever.
