What If I Died?

What if I died?       

What would you do?

Would you care?

Would you feel gulity

because you were NEVER there?

Would you actually know me?

Of course not.

If you did,

you would have known.

But would you have tried to stop it

is my question.

Is the only thing you would say is:

"She died so young"?

But no,

you're wrong.

I lived so many lives.

And NONE of them were my own.

How do you think that makes me feel?

I had to live someone else's life 

to feel something.

to do something.

I can't even live as me.

So, no.

I wasn't too young.

I was just too late.

And so were you.
