Tuesday was their last day <br />For they never made it to Wednesday <br />The kisses that they missed <br />The arguments they left un-resolved <br />The “I love you” they never got to say <br />In the moments they realized <br />That there was no way out <br />Do you think that they would have stopped <br />To smell the flowers <br />Witness the last purple sunset <br />Breathe in the fresh summer’s air <br />If they new that Tuesday was their last day <br />And that they wouldn’t make it to Wednesday <br /> <br /> <br />This poem was inspired by the tragic events of 9\11<br /><br />nicola burkett<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/31-tuesday-was-their-last-day/
