i wish i had one more yesterday with you
take me back to that time of carelessness
worry free sunshine on a cloudless day

can you give me one more yesterday please
no tears no heartbreak just your heart and mine
beating in a happy collision in a gentle rhythm

if life would give me one more yesterday
i swear i would hold on to it as i would to you
and not fear about a looming future apart

time is relentlessly ticking away, unaware
of what was, ever moving towards what will be
as the clock continues moving its hands

i’ll hold on to yours until the last second arrives
pleading with life and death i ask them kindly
can i please have one more tomorrow with you?

      1. I am well. How ARE your parents? I will have shoulder surgery in a couple of weeks. Hopefully it will go well.

        We’re getting ready for the Christmas holidays. However, I gonna try to relax as much as possible.

      2. Good to hear! :)
        My parents are getting old :( It’s showing more and more now. It’s difficult to deal with, but impossible to avoid.

        Shoulder surgery, that sounds serious! I hope things will go smooth and you’ll heal and restore well :)

        Don’t mention Christmas, lol. I only just survived my parents’ 50th anniversary and two birthdays last week. Can’t begin to start thinking about Christmas 🙈 I’m in denial until December 25th, lol!
