Tomorrow
Tomorrow I may be dead!
Today I shall tell my wife and family
how much I love them.
Tomorrow there may be tears!
Today I shall wear that coat that everyone
hates...except me.
Tomorrow there may be prayers!
Today I shall go roller skating
even though I have never tried before.
Tomorrow people may gather!
Today I shall eat greasy food and drink beer.
Tomorrow goodbyes may be said!
Today I shall look at women, just a little longer.
Tomorrow I may be just a memory!
Today I will push my way to the front of the queue
and when people ask me what the hell I am doing?
I shall reply
I am living for today...
