If today was your last

By Michelle Holt

 

What would you do if this day was your last ??

Would you eat your heart out?

Perhaps, smoke some grass?

Would you finish that book?

Would you kneel down to pray?

Would you tell others -the things you’ve been dying to say?

How would you manage your time on this day?

Would you spend it wisely or toss it away?

Would you do something thoughtful?

Would you give your last buck?

Would you kiss everyone?

Would you rather make love?

Would you love every person?

 forgive and forget

Would you spend your last day filled with regret?

Would you climb a tall mountain?

Would you take a balloon ride?

Would you visit the homeless?

Would you ride out the tide?

Would you paint that picture?

Would you sit down and cry?

Would you sit there in silence, just waiting to die?

Would you go out and shoplift?

Would you spend all you made?

Would you confess to another that you’re deeply afraid?

An important thought and deeply profound,

what if you did these things while your still around?

What if you lived for a hundred more years?

Would you do all these things….?

Would you part from this world with only your fears?
