There Will Be a Now

Tell those precious to you that you love them,

tell them as often as you can.

You do not know when they will be called Home.

It could even be you.

One thing is for sure: It will happen.

There will be a Today

when someone you love

slips free from the chains of mortality.

There will be a Now when they are here

then a Now when they are gone.

Stop reading this, my friend, I beg you

and reach out to them.

There may be angels enroute this very moment

to take one of you away.

Do not delay.

Tell them you love them, and tell them how much,

although it is never enough.

Just one more thing:

I love you more than life itself.
