If I Were to Die
If I were to die right now,
Drop straight to the ground,
What would your reaction be?
Would you start to weep,
For the times we never had? Or,
For the place I would soon see?
Would you start to scream,
And shout,
For all the world to hear?
Would you start to run,
Far away from the pain,
Your footfalls loud and clear?
Would you mourn,
Mourn for me,
Day by day by day?
Would you come to my burial,
Give me roses and,
Send me on my way?
Or would you try to follow,
Follow me to the sky,
Will rope or knife be the end?
Yes it's true,
My life was cut short,
But yours does not have to end.
