"WHAT IF"
A what if feeling arrived late last night
I took it to bed, in the dark out of sight
But not out of mind though I'd like it to be
Can't quite understand
what has happened to me
It was still there this morning, I wish it would leave
It arrived uninvited insisting believe
Couldn't focus on work so my feet hit the trail
Each step stamped this feeling
but to no avail
What triggered this feeling? What word, what cruel twist
Has weasled its way into what doesn't exist?
The question what if has stolen my morning
And coloured my feelings as though they were mourning
The loss of something that hasn't transpired
Except in my mind
