Beautiful Poem

My dad read the book ” Proof of Heaven” and in it was a poem by David Romano “When Tomorrow Starts Without Me”…

When tomorrow starts without me,
And I’m not there to see,
If the sun should rise and find your eyes,
All filled with tears for me,
I wish so much you wouldn’t cry
They way you did today,
While thinking of the many things,
We didn’t get to say.
I know how much you love me,
As much as I love you
And each time you think of me,
I know you’ll miss me too
But when tomorrow starts without me,
Please try to understand,
That an angel came and called my name,
And took me by the hand,
And said my place was ready,
In heaven far above
And that I’d have to leave behind
All those I dearly love.
But as I turned to walk away,
A tear fell from my eye
For all my life, I’d always thought,
I didn’t want to die.
I had so much to live for,
So much left yet to do.
It seemed almost impossible
That I was leaving you.

I thought of all the yesterdays,
The good ones and the bad,
The thought of all the love we shared,
And all the fun we had.
If i could relive yesterday,
Just even for a while,
I’d say good bye and kiss you
and maybe see you smile
But then I fully realized
That this could never be,
For emptiness and memories,
Would take the place for me.
And when I thought of worldly things
I might miss come tomorrow
I thought of you and when i did
My heart was filled with sorrow
But when I walked through heaven’s gates
I felt so much as home
When God looked down and smiled at me,
From His great golden throne,
He said, “this is eternity
And all I’ve promised you,
Today your life on earth is past
But here it starts anew
I promise no tomorrow
But today will always last
And since each day’s the same way
There’s no longing for the past
You have been so faithful
So trusting and so true
Though there were times
You did somethings
You knew you shouldn’t do
But you have been forgiven
And now at last you’re free
So won’t you come and take my hand
And share my life with me?

So when tomorrow starts without me
Don’t think we’re far apart
For every time you think of me
I’m right here in you heart.
