Would You Remember?

If I left now would they remember?

Would they see I wasn't just another member

of society?

That I had a family?

Or would I be just another girl on the news,

who had people for her she never thought to use?

Would my mother be glad to feel the sun on her face,

or would she want to take her daughter's place?

Would my father feel the pain of waking up today,

or would he get up and shake it all away?

Would my friends move on and forget,

all the memories we had?

Or would they only get

to come because they felt bad?

Would society think of me as a normal, average girl,

or would I be a suicidal teen, caught up in the world?

Would they know I did it only to make

the world a better place, for those to come and take?

Or would they think I was a selfish girl,

who thought she was alone in this cold dark world?

Would they remember me for me, sporty and outgoing,

or would they only see the dark side, still deep and foreboding?

Would I still be me, energetic through and through,

or would I be a monster, something completely new?

Would you remember me,

and not just what you see

on the news, saying pray,

for my family today,

but would see a picture,

and think of all our times together?

Would you remember?
