Today I died, went to sleep but didn't awake,
I pray that the Lord forgave me and my soul will take.
I haven't really been the best but haven't been the worst,
Within a few days my body will be driven in a hurst.
I think back on all the thing I should have said or done,
I wonder if any would have help others, maybe even one?
The funeral should be interesting, to see who all will show.
Some friends, some family and maybe some I don't even know.
Are they here to rememeber me in life or just here cause I'm dead?
They sit there and cry, makes me wonder what thought is in thier head.
Am I the kind of person they will remember for the good or the bad?
Are they sitting there cause they are happy or are they sad?
How many of these people will truly miss me from thier lives?
And how many of these people will be giving each other high fives?
I lived my life trying to be the best person that I could be,
Doing on to others as I would want them to do onto me.
I do wonder sometimes what it was about me they loved or hated,
Was it something I said or did or something I didn't cause I had over waited?
I tried to be the type of friend that I would want someone to be to me,
I had but a few of those, the ones that loved me openly and completely.
I was far from perfect, just tryed to love and wanted the same,
I was never the type of person to look for fortune or fame.
I guess it doesn't matter now cause my life as I knew it is over and done,
I don't want anyone to cry for me now that my afterlife has just begun.
It seems so long or so short from this time to my birth,
But I will be in a better place away from this wicked earth.
All I leave behind are memories that in time will fade,
But I am happy for time I had, for that, nothing I would trade.
