Would You...?
If you were to die today
What would you say?
Would you call everyone you knew?
Just to say goodbye
Would that make things worse?
When you hear them cry?
What would you do with the time you have?
What would be the hardest part?
Maybe leaving the loved ones behind
Scary thoughts in the back of your mind
All the things that you're gonna miss
That special someone you never got to kiss
Your last laugh
The last cry
That sweet twinkle in their eye
The final word
Or the last song you heard
Something that you last touched
Objects that you can feel
Lost in the life that seems so unreal
An aroma of an adored treat
That mouthwatering sensation when you eat
A strong memory that you don't want to forget
Maybe some kind of regret
The person you wish you would have known
Watch your kids and how they've grown
Miss the opportunity for something you never did
A favorite past time as a kid
Would you lie in bed and wait to go?
Your treasured spot and the best show
Would you need someone to hold your hand?
Because if you do I’ll understand
Would you sit around and wonder why?
Wonder why everyone must eventually die?
If you just had one wish
What would it be?
Do you want immortality?
Would you ponder the different ways to die?
And think and ask yourself why?
What determines everyone’s fate?
No one knows until it's far too late
How come some are burned and black?
And why can't we bring them back?
Fighting sickness and disease
Teenagers in the bathroom on their knees
Some people bleed
Others starving and in need
It's only a matter of time
Before you're at the end of the line
Calendars and clocks
Yesterdays, todays, and tomorrow’s
Would you go back if you could?
Did you do everything that you should?
A shinny new tombstone on the cold wet ground
But there is no name to be found
So, I’ll ask you
To sit and think today
Would You...?
This is the first post for me...so, comments, suggestions?
