IF TOMORROW NEVER COMES
It was well past midnight and all that was being heard was scratching of quill against the parchment and a hoot of a distant owl somewhere in the middle of warm summer night. After what seemed like hours the noise stopped and the bespectacled auror laid down his quill and reclined in his chair, his elbows resting on the arm rest, his hands clasped and soberly looking outside the window into the inky blue midnight sky deep in his thoughts…
A gust of warm summer breeze caressed his tired brow bringing him out of his reverie.
Removing his specs he moved forward in his seat and placing the specs next to the parchment he ran his hands through his black hair and massaged his forehead. Looking up his eyes fell on the radio which sat at the corner of the table. Switching it on in the middle of a song Harry Potter reclined back in his chair his eyes now falling on his parchment containing the report about his recent auror expedition which he had to submit to his boss next week.
It was quite some expedition to say the least. There was a time in the middle of his expedition where he felt as if time had turned some 15 years back and his mind was plagued with same fear he had then. Fear of not able to make it back, fear of not telling his friends how thankful he was for their help all his life, fear thinking that he still has lots to give to his kids and fear if he has loved and cared for his wife enough. Fear is good, it makes people humane but fear that plagues the mind it needs to be worked upon. There has to be a solution for it you cant continue to live in fear. And those thoughts plague him even now sitting in the study of Grimmuald Place after his return…
And that was Quit Playing Games from the very famous muggle boy Band of 1990s Backstreet Boys for all my listeners
Harry looked at the radio as the RJ’s voice cut through his thoughts…
So this is it from me on tonight’s edition of ‘Fabulous Friday’s With Muggles’ but I promise to come back next week same time same place with another new collection…
To listen to my new collection tune in next week to Wireless City Network with me RJ Nightingale…
But coming up next to end tonight’s edition is a wonderful song in voice of Ronan Keating from his year 2002 album Destination. I would suggest you to take his advice my friends ‘coz what If Tomorrow Never Comes…
Till next week love you all… goodnight, sweet dreams…adios…
Harry increased the volume a bit sat there waiting for the song to play…
Sometimes late at night
I lie awake and watch her sleeping
She's lost in peaceful dreams
So I turn out the lights and lay there in the dark
A soft smile played on Harry’s lips as his mind wandered back to his room where his dear wife must be in deep sleep already.
And the thought crosses my mind
If I never wake up in the morning
Would she ever doubt the way I feel
About her in my heart
If tomorrow never comes
Will she know how much I loved her
Did I try in every way to show her every day
That she's my only one
And if my time on earth were through
And she must face this world without me
Is the love I gave her in the past
Harry reclined in his chair deeply listening to the song as each line sung spoke out his inhibitions but at the same time the music so soothing that it made him feel calm…
Gonna be enough to last
If tomorrow never comes
'Cause I've lost loved ones in my life
Who never knew how much I loved them
Harry closed his eyes for a moment and sighed
Now I live with the regret
That my true feelings for them never were revealed
‘how very true…’ he thought shaking his head and opened his eyes and stared at the ceiling above…
So I made a promise to myself
To say each day how much she means to me
And avoid that circumstance
Where there's no second chance to tell her how I feel
If tomorrow never comes
Will she know how much I loved her
Did I try in every way to show her every day
That she's my only one
And if my time on earth were through
And she must face this world without me
Is the love I gave her in the past
Gonna be enough to last
If tomorrow never comes
Harry turned his head and looked at the radio as the song continued to play…
So tell that someone that you love
Just what you're thinking of
If tomorrow never comes…
As the song ended Harry sighed once again his head bent.
“How true, how very true” he spoke softly and then got up slowly switching off the radio. Walking out of the study dimming the lights by his wand his legs carried him towards his room back while his head was still swimming with the soft music of the song, its meaningful lyrics and his thoughts.
Harry entered the room and saw it was dimly lit. Walking towards the bed he saw Ginny sleeping soundly and he small smile crept up his face. Gently pushing a strand of her hair back from her face he lay next to her and wrapped her in his arms gently and protectively and she snuggled much closer to him asleep. Holding her he breathed in her fragrance and his mind wrapped up in those cherished memories that they made together. Each one unique, each one lovely, each one worth all the trouble in their life’s…
“Love you Ginny…always had…always will…Good Night Honey” he spoke softly kissing her forehead…before falling into a deep peaceful sleep…
