If tomorrow never comes…

Today is the last day of the world!

Are you sure? Do you realize what you are saying?

You are? Ah!

That means, there will be no tomorrow! Will the Sun not rise tomorrow? Will the sky not showcase the sparkling stars anymore? Will there be no moon to lit up the dark night sky?

If the world comes to an end tomorrow, there will be no birds chirping; no animals hopping; no cloud – no rain – no water – no oceans; there will be no newspaper anymore – there will be no news; the factories will come to a standstill; the vehicles will not start off with any new voyages; no glossy mornings and no dusky evenings; no wrongs and no rights; the offices will lay unattended; there will be no wind to blow away the dust that accumulates on the papers and stationeries – nay, there will be no paper, no stationary, no office and even no wind at all! There will be just nothing left on this earth.

And you are saying all this is going to happen from tomorrow?

Oh! That’s hard to believe but if that has to happen, it will. Not much that I can do to stop it, isn’t it?

It’s doomsday, at last! But then, even if the world comes to an end tomorrow I still will have today. There are still a few things that I can do, and I will.

I will keep thinking about you, till the last second passes away. Thinking of you I will keep smiling, till the last being gives up the ghost. I will close my eyes and hold you as close as I can and whisper my heart out in your ears, till the last life on earth perishes. Till the last man standing drops, I will keep you and your love close to my heart and hold on to them. If there is no tomorrow, let me have you all by this day itself.

I wish!

One last time…

If tomorrow never comes, I would spend rest of my life in the present day, with you in and around me in every way possible. I would like to still believe that whatever you told me are all true – that you would love me and that we will stay together forever. I would still like to believe that you are right here in my arms, wrapped up by my warmth, silenced by my songs, immersed in my affection and responding only to the breathes I take. I would still like to believe that you are sitting with me as always, smiling along; even if you are not here, not anymore!

Your thoughts are the only thing left in this life of mine, and nothing but your mere presence can make me feel like living, again. The world ended the day you were gone! So, if tomorrow never comes, it hardly matters – it hardly matters to me, my love.
