What would YOU do if they gave you a year...

Other What would you do, if they gave you one year?
If the doctor’s said that the time was near
What would you do if they gave you one day?
Should you be more careful ‘bout the things you say?
What would you do if they gave you one hour?
Remember the good times, or remember the sour?
What would YOU do if it’s your turn to die?
Don’t know the feeling? YOUR turn to cry
Coded in silence is the fate of your life
How long you live, how much time
When the times up, what will you do?
I’ll tell you what, NOTHING, your through
Before that times up, you’d better start apologizing
Apologize for all the times you’ve lied, all the times you’ve yelled at your mom,
All the things you’ve said under your breath, before you rest…
Better start giving, what little you have
Better start LIVING, the little time you have
Pray for the best, even in the worst
Soon you won’t hunger, soon you won’t thirst…
Before you go, tell someone you love ‘em
Before you go, tell ‘em you care
May be the last chance you ever get,
May be the last chance, life’s not fair
What would you do if your time’s almost passed?
One more hug? It might be your last…
I Loved this Poem it was beautiful well done. TERESA RIFE
I loved this poem. It got me teary-eyed because it reminded me of my dad who died of cancer. I know what he did when it was his last year. I think what I would do is apologize to everyone that I've done wrong to and do the absolute happiest/craziest things in the last hours of my life. Believe me, I think my dad would've wanted more minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, years, decades...
