How do I love you today?
Tomorrow could be filled with joy and play.
Tomorrow could bring disaster and confusion.
I do not know the future. It is but an illusion.
Tomorrow you could go away.
So, how do I love you today?
How do I love you in the present moment?
What is your deepest need this instant?
Am I the one to meet it? How should I pray?
Should I treat it? What should I say?
Tomorrow I may go away.
So, how do I love you today?
How do I express my love now?
Should I listen and make silent vow?
Do I listen to my heart or my head?
Do I speak words I fear and dread?
Do I speak the cry of my soul?
How do I speak love? I do not know.
How do I love you today?
Should I come near or stay away?
Should I hold your hand or give an embrace?
Should I simply smile looking at your face?
Tomorrow is too far away.
So, how do I love you today?
Author notes
To sustain love, we must decide to love today. Do not worry about tomorrow. Decide to love today each day.

Beautiful! Yes I agree that we must love each day for there may not be a tomorrow. I try and live my life that way, its not always an easy task to accomplish, but with Gods guidance I do try. This piece read so sweetly. Flow was smooth and so full of deep emotion. Written from your heart. Well done. Hugs, Kelly

Hmmm. I like this poem. It has an interesting way of looking at the topic.
I like how when you ask a question, you kind of answer it with the way you chose to word them.
The poem has a nice beat going on.
My favorite part is when you say the future is an illusion.
Thanks for sharing!
