you never know-

when the day will come

when your breathing will stop

and your life will be done. 

you never know 

when the sun will quit shining 

or when the life you live

will stop unwinding.

you never know 

when you'll see the last of life

or when you'll say

your last goodbyes.

you see, you never know

with things like this, 

that's why it's important 

to love and forgive,

the people around you-

before it's too late-

before they become victims, of pain and shame. 

now- i'm not saying it's easy

but it's important to know-

that hatred and grudges, follow you-

whereever you go. 

so thats why it's best-

to let go of all your selfish ways

and forgive the ones who hurt you

before you reach the grave. 

they say keep your friends close

but keep your enemies closer 

because forgivness is ideal

when you think it over. 

i give this advice

because i know what it's like

i've been there myself

many times in my life. 

so before i go

let me say this right-

forgive your enemies 

and you'll be alright-

especially when you say, your last goodbyes.
