If I died today, tomorrow,
Or any other day,
Would anyone miss me?
Or would people go on
With their daily lives?

If I died today, tomorrow,
Or any other day,
Would I get the chance to say goodbye?
Or would my death be a dark,
Tragic blemish, scarring someone's heart?

If I died today, tomorrow,
Or any other day,
Could I genuinely say my life was complete?
Or am I doomed to remain
Unsatisfied forever?

If I died today, tomorrow,
Or any other day,
Would my life have a good ending?

I'm sure this is a question everyone has asked themselves every once in a while.
