If I Die Today...

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
