What If

A world of broken dreams

And hopeful ones

Of a road long gone

Or a brighter future

A sorrow filled sigh

Or a joyful thought

A trap from the past

Or a place of broken shackles

 

Worlds are created

In this fictional space

We regret

We dream

And we wonder

A world painted in bright colors

Or permanent blots

Marking our every move

 

What if

Two simple words

Yet two sharp edges

 

What if I had just said hello

What if I had just said no

What if I had just walked away sooner

What if I had just taken that chance

 

What if I stopped the second guessing

What if I stopped this charade

Because the regret of yesterday

Saps the joy from tomorrow

 

And you know what?

What if the best is yet to come.
