If

Thoughts In Time

'If':

If only
I
Could see
Into
'Their'
Minds-
What is
It there
That I
Would find?
What
Makes them
Feel so
Incomplete
So
Unreal-
That into
Others lives
They want
To 'steal'-
To become
Accepted
Instead
Of
Rejected-
To feel
Loved?
Attractive?
But then
The
Questions
Abound-
'what if-
It should
Be a game?
What if
They don't
Feel the
Same?
What if
The day
Never
Comes?'
But
The
'what if',
Needs
To be
Turned
Around-
Into self-
It
Must be
Found!! 'What if-
You
Loved
Yourself
A bit more?
What if-
You went
Knocking
On
Heavens door?
What if-
You wanted to
Know more
From
Behind
That
Unopened door?
Looked about-

Trying to
Find yourself
just
Brings
Doubt-
Forget
The attention,
And who
Does it
Mention?

Its the
Flesh
Of
The mind-
Its a
Human
Kind-
Bringing
'What ifs,'
To your
Heart-
Bringing
Confusion-
Disillusion-

It will
All
Work out
A certain
Way-
On a
Certain
Day-

So-
Forget
The ' what if',
And
Be part
Of the plan-
Which was
Never
Set out

    A good write Kelly. Here is my short poem 'If':
    If I start singing
    Everyone runs away
    Dunno why!
    Doh! (heehee).
    Is it that bad?!

        I'm horrible though. I keep insulting cats, saying my singing is like two of them fighting! It's much worse than that - is it?! lol.
