Not tomorrow

Who knows about a tomorrow
I only know of today
come love me now
without any sorrow
why my precious time
you want to borrow

tonight is all I can promise today
who knows whether the sunrise
will come my way
so tonight only I can promise
the whole night long I will stay

who knows about tomorrow
we may not live that day
why doubt me of my love I pray
'twill be another day

I shall come again tomorrow
but tonight my love,
come let us play
why ask of me a tomorrow
it may not come my way

but I promise 'twill be another day
I will come again
if the morning sun wakes me
alas not in vain

why ask me of a tomorrow
of which I
well no one can ever say
come now my loved one
let's enjoy this tonight
our usual way

why ask me of a tomorrow
Of which I cannot promise today

A very thought provoking poem Lovedly. All we have is today, we cannot promise anything more because tommrow is not ours to promise. In fact all we have is this moment... ? Hummm I feel another poem comming on, you have inspired me. Buddha
