If I ever die
unexpectedly
please don’t be alarmed or cry,
or shocked with the corpse you see.
Know that I’m at peace with God
and I’m held tight in his arms.
That I’m free from earthly suffering
and safe from this world’s harm.
If I ever die
looking mangled or diseased,
don’t turn your face from mine
or be scared at what you see.
If my body is contorted
or covered all in blood,
don’t pity my pain or death,
just know I’m in the presence of His Love.
If I ever die
in a way that is unknown,
Don’t sit around and wonder why
I didn’t stay at home.
My life was filled with travesties
and treasures in and out.
I’ve leveled up to better things
much more fun to think about.
If I ever die,
please remember my whole life.
Focus on the good and fun
but don’t forget the days of strife.
For my life has been the deepest
point in an endless, troubled sea
and I’ve often wondered if being born
is worth it or would I be
better off not seeing light
and feeling suffering inside?
I guess it doesn’t really matter
If I ever die.
