If you should die before I wake
I promise not the blame to take
Nor dance upon your grave
Or run about and rave
If you should die before I wake
I promise not to leave out the rake
Nor the the scratches uncovered
Or pretend that you were smothered
If you should die before I wake
I promise not to toss you to the lake
Nor leave your body in my room
Or remove evidence with the broom
If you should die before I wake
I promise not to party 'till after the wake
Nor waste your favorite alcohol
Or admit that i hate you after all

Lol... this is a very humorous poem, made me laugh with my first poem of the morning
But there's a certain sense of realism there, too. I think many of us have had similiar thoughts at one time or another in our lives.
The title reminds of a poem I posted awhile back but sort of the opposite vein as yours. Mine was titled "If I should Die Before You Wake" if I remember right.
A good piece, well rhymed and good meter. I wish you the best in the contest
