If

If I woke up one day
And you weren’t here,
Would I cry to mourn your loss
Or regret not spending time with you?

If I woke up one day
And friends were gone,
Would I miss them
Or regret the unsettled mishaps?

If I woke up one day
And found myself alone,
Would I feel that I’ve survived
Or suffer for being an introvert?

If I woke up one day
And realised it was my last,
Would I tell everyone I love them
Or be apologizing and begging for forgiveness?

If I never woke at all
‘cause I died in my sleep,
Would I be missed by anyone
Or simply forgotten by all?
