FEBRUARY 21 2010 1121 - JACKSONVILLE FL - I am at a point where my creative thoughts are building. I go through these cycles in life, when inspiration hits me and I just have to write, or compose. At these times, it is not so much me in the 1st person, but another person within me who captures my thoughts and creatively phrases them. This one may be a little eerie, it is called:
If I Should Die Tonight
If I should die tonight, would you miss me? Would you care? Or would I be nothing more than just a passing thought within a gentle breeze whose presence if felt but just a simple moment in time, if I should die tonight.
If I should die tonight, will there be tears for me? What will my eulogy be? Will I be yet regarded as just another insignificant entity lost with in the forest of empty thoughts and vacant dreams, if I should die tonight.
If I should die tonight, who would even know? Who will look for me? Shall I count the blessings from the Lord above that I even had the opportunity to share in this world of whoa after all, if I should die tonight.
If I should die tonight, would it have been my time? Does anyone truly know the time? Or is time to be nothing more than some empty cosmic metaphor once spoke from some tale of lore, if I should die tonight.
If I should die tonight, will my enraptured soul be free? Will I taste the beautiful majesty? Will I in his arms now makes my home accepted finally be where I belong with no valleys left to roam, if I should die tonight.
If I should die tonight, will you say goodbye to a pest? Will you account that I did my best? Or will that weight remain on my chest another failure of a test as I close my eyes in eternal rest, if I should die tonight.

I am not sure what I may have been thinking as these thoughts welled within my mind. They were just thoughts that needed to be written down. I do not find them to be a form of a premonition, or at least I do not believe it to be. Who knows? After all, life is anything but a certainty.
