~ The Little Things ~



too often we don't realize
what we have until it is gone
too often we wait too late
to say I'm sorry,
I was wrong
sometimes it seems
we hurt the ones
we hold dearest to our heart
and we allow foolish things
to tear our lives apart
far too many times we let
unimportant things
into our minds
and then it's usually too late
to see what made us blind
so be sure that you
let people know
how much they mean to you
take that time
to say the words
before your time is through
be sure that you appreciate
everything you've got
and be thankful for
the little things
in life that mean a lot…
