Will I be remembered
For who I was...or who I am
Will I be sorely missed
By my family...by my friends
Did I make a difference
In this thing that we call life
Did I make amends
For things I didn't do right
Can I change some things I've done
Even just one time...
Can I change mistakes I've made
Maybe be a little more kind
Will the tumor kill me today
Or shall I suffer a little more
Does it even really matter
Since I've lived it all before
For if I die today
At least I know that I am loved
And when it's my time to go
My father is waiting up above
He will take me in his arms
Making sure that I am safe
He's up there waiting to see me
In what is surely a better place
My children keep me going
This cancer is just a 'thing'
And although I will not die today
Who knows what the future brings

She who made my heart burst
My wife and
If I die today and looked truly dead
Would someone come in and make the bed.
And while you're washing my dirty dishes
Know
Your world won't implode.
Your soul won't begin to decay
if I should die some time today.
Diseases and disharmony
will
If I die today and my life were over,
What will you remember?
Am I someone you will miss?
How will you choose to reminisce?
