Today is my mother birthday and she had us say this in her funeral 6 months ago. This is the first birthday in 23 years she is with her twin sister. When Tomorrow Starts Without Me When tomorrow starts without me and Im not there to see, If the sun should rise and find your eyes all filled with tears for me, I wish so much you wouldnt cry the way you did today While thinking of the many thing, We didnt get to say I know how much you love me, As much as i love you And each time that you think of me, I know youll miss me too But when tomorrow starts without me please try and understand That an Angel came and called my name, And took me by my hand And said my place was ready In heaven far above And that Id 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 Id alway thought, I didnt 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 I thought of all the love we shared, And all the fun we had If I could relive yesterday, Just even for a little while Id say good-bye and kiss you, And maybe make you smile Buy then I fully realized, That this could never be For emptiness and memories, Would take the place of 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 Heavens gates, I felt so much at home When God looked down and smiled at me, From His great golden throne He said, This is eternity, And all Ive promised you Today your life on earth is past, But here life starts anew I promise no tomorrow, But today will always last And since each days the same way, Theres no longing for the past You have been so faithful, So trusting and so true Though there were times, You did some thingsYou knew you shouldnt do But you have been forgiven, And now at last youre free So wont you come and take My hand, And share My life with Me So when tomorrow starts without me, Dont think were far apart For every time you think of me, Im right here in your heart. The poem is said to be written in 1993 by David M. Romano.
