What Would Happen If I Died Today?

                         What would happen if I died today?
                   Would you be mad at me if I didn't say Good-bye?
                       Or would you turn and go on your way? 
                        Would you ask the good Lord why?
                         Or would you just sit back and cry?

                         What would happen if I died today?
                         Would you know how I really feel?
                           Would you let my love decay?
                          Or would your heart ever heel?
                           Would you live on in my will?

                         What would happen if I died today?
                          Would my love live on forever?
                         Or would my memory fade away?
                         I hope you'll smile in every weather.
                        And keep your heart light as a feather.

Reason for writing:

    Everyone questions life, right? When it'll end, if there's
life after death, ect... I never really feared it 'til I
was listneing to a Garth Brooks song and all the sudden I 
realized I could die at any moment. Now I still don't fear
it but it makes ya wonder how everyone would react if you
were gone.
