when i die
will you cry?
would i have left
with things
you’d remember
me by?
when i die
will you think
i was a good friend
a daughter
a cousin
a sister
a mother
when i die
will you miss me?
will you think
life was better
when i was alive
when we shared tears
when we shared smiles
when i die
will i have left
people thinking
i lived a life
i chose for me
one i liked
one i loved
one i truly lived
when i die
will you remember
how i loved you
have i ever told you?
did i ever say it
often enough
and made you feel
i do?
when i die
will i be more
than just a corpse
a cold body
a pile of ashes
in an urn
i hope
when i die
i would have left
this world
with more than just
my name
i want to leave
my heart
my warmth
my love
when i die,
i ask again
will you remember?
will you cry?
