A Funeral

I watch as they brought the coffin
Does it make you think?
What if this person did something they regret
did they fix it before dying?
What if that was you
If you were to die....
Do you think you fixed all your wrongs
All the problems you had
Face all the people you hate
All the people you loved
Have you made peace with those who hurt you
Those you've hurt?
Those you cared for...
How can you be sure
You look around you and see who has tears
and who probably will miss this person more...
Family
Friends
Acquaintance
Who exactly was this person..
Someone good
Someone bad
Someone respected?
Someone feared?
People can say how nice and good this person was...
But what if they didn't know the truth about this person
What if they never even talked to this person
What if...
What ifs
Thats the thing here...
What if this person could of lived on a bit longer
What if this person had things they wanted to do before dying..
Did this person even know they would die??
It took a funeral... to make me think
It took a funeral to make me see what i need to fix
What i need to change...
What I want to live for...
To die for...
And all it took for me to realize this...
Was a Funeral...
