Some thoughts before you die..

So in English Class we're reading "A Lesson Before Dying." Well I can't really focus in English, so I wrote this poem. It, in a way, relates to the book & Jefferson, the main character. I thought it was a really good, reflective book. Comment on my poem ( :

What if I die today,
and leave this earth for good?
What if I die today,
have I done the best I could?

What if I died today,
would it matter how I dressed?
What if I died today,
have I done the very best?

What if I died today,
have I fufilled God's plan?
What if I died today,
would Jesus be my fan?

What if I died today,
would my grades have even mattered?
What if I died today,
would my friends and family be shattered?

What if I died today,
would how I looked remain?
What if I died today,
would everyone be in pain?

What if I die today,
because you never know..
When your time is coming
only God can should make you go.
