Who promised you tomorrow?
Who told you it was yours and you could have it just like that?
Causally throwing around 'tomorrow's day' in conversations.
See you tomorrow,
Talk to you tomorrow,
Call me tomorrow,
Email me tomorrow,
Why not today?
Who promised you tomorrow?
It's not just another day,
It's totally different from today,
Extremely different from today.
If it can be done today,
Why tomorrow?
Who promised you tomorrow?
Sitting there dreaming about tomorrow,
A tomorrow where everything is ok,
And everything goes exactly your way,
Wake up!
Who told you to trust tomorrow?
A day that may be for you or not,
A day filled with unpredictable events.
Do you know where you'll be tomorrow?
Do you know what will happen tomorrow?
What do you know about tomorrow?
What do I know about tomorrow?
All I know is I'm living for today,
Always having God in mind,
Whilst praying and hoping for tomorrow.
My friend and neighbour Aboyowa 'Abs' Harriman passed away yesterday morning.
Last thing I said to him was see you tomorrow.
Tomorrow came and he wasn't there . . .
Tomorrow came and he wasn't there . . .
I thank God for his life and letting me be a part of it. I'll miss our morning conversations, after work gist and hearing his hearty laugh from over the walls of our house.

RIP cousin, you will truly be missed.
ReplyDeleteThank you for writing this, its beautiful and so so so true.Its just a damn shame it takes something so big to remind us of how quick everything can change and life can end. God knows best though, so like you said all we can do is always have him in mind and pray and hope for tomorrow.
Dear Abs's cousin, May God comfort you and your family.
ReplyDeleteThis is a really good post. RIP to him.
