If you could have one more day, just one, what would you do?

I know if I had one more day I would sit and listen.

What would you say with one more day?

I dream of what we would say, what we wouldn’t.

Comfortable silence was your forte.

But what if we both knew it was one extra day?

I’d tell you I love you, what you mean to me and always have.

I’d ask more about your life.

Some reason when we are young origin stories don’t seem to matter as much.

But as we grow and those whom we love leave us we suddenly wish we knew.

If you have someone you love in your life who might not have as much time left as you hope.

Ask.

Ask about where they came from, their childhood stories, their best memories.

Don’t wait and wonder what if I had one more day?
