Live Each Day As It's Your Last Day Poem by Sweta Leena Panda

One day in my dream
I saw a beautiful lady is asking me
'If today is your last day
How can you celebrate this day
So wake up
Take it as 'it's your last day
'Wake up' 'wake up' '
Her voice was so sweet
I didn't know who she was
I woke up early
I didn't know
Why I felt like this is my last day of my life
Her words was roaring in my ears
Constantly I was asking myself
'Is it true or dream
If it's true then '
Suddenly I prepared myself to finish
My all unfinished works
I couldn't understand what to do first
As time is very limited for me
So I started my work
From my parents
As they are my first priority
I told them how much I love them
I brought many gifts for them
And tried to fulfill their all demands
Then I decided to tell someone how much I love her
I decided to tell everything what is in my heart
As I didn't know
Whether I can see tomorrow or not
I felt What's worth the prize is always worth the fight
Every second I was counting because there's no second try
So I was living like I'll never live it twice
If today was my last day
And tomorrow was too late
This thought made me too hurry
I tried to do my all undone works
So I made a list
What are my first priorities?
I told to myself
' Can I say goodbye to yesterday?
I want to Leave old pictures in the past
going to flush out my every worst memories?
Can I call my old friends?
As I didn't know whether I can see them or not?
Reminisce of memories
can I forgive my enemies?
Swear up and down to God above
that I finally fall in love
I knew it's never too late to shoot for the stars
Regardless of who I am
So I want to do whatever it takes
Because I can't rewind a moment in this life
Let nothing stand in my way
because the hands of time are not on my side
Time is very limited for me
If today was my last day
Then I want to do all these things
I want to make this day as my happiest day
I want to forgive all
I want to show my love
Whom I couldn't tell from last many years
I want to give to others how much I can
So that, I can feel a satisfaction after my death '

My days passed
And I felt a different kind of satisfaction that
I had done everything in my life within a day
It's not too late to win everyone's heart
So that day was my happiest day & last day
There was little fear with in my heart
I gonna loose all
I had to leave those people whom I love too much
I didn't know I love everyone
Still I was living alone
As some kind of fear & pain within my heart
Which I flush out today
I didn't know how my time pass
And night knocked at my door
I didn't wanna fall in sleep
As there was a fear with in my heart
I didn't wanna leave this earth
However I didn't know
How I fall in sleep
Further in my dream
I saw that beautiful angel's face
She was smiling at me & told
'You have done good things with in a very limited time
So you won, you need not to worry
You have a got a beautiful life from tomorrow
But live each day as your last day
your today's work is a blessing for your tomorrow
I had told you lie
as I saw - you are suffering some kind of pain
A pain which you can't share with others
So God has send me to remove your all fear & tear
But you have done great things in your life
After saying this she became disappear
I was searching her in my dream
However failed to see her further
When I woke up the next morning
I felt my fear & pain has been removed
And I felt a different kind of satisfaction & pleasure
I thanked my God a lot
I felt it was the best advice ever
She said each day's a gift and not a given right
Leave no stone unturned, leave your fears behind
And try to take the path less traveled by
That first step you take is the longest stride
Live each day as it's your Last day
