The Time is now
An unfinished work by my father:
The time is now.
if you are ever going to love me, love me now, while I can know the sweet and tender feelings which from true affection flow, love me now. While I'm living, do not wait until I'm gone and then have it chiseled in marble, sweet words on ice-cold stone. If you have tender thoughts of me, please tell me now. If you wait until I'm sleeping, never to awaken, there will be death between us, and I won't hear you then, so, if you love me, even a little bit, let me know it while I am living so I can treasure it.
