"WHAT IF?" Poem, by MuSa, at My poetic side

You call me poetry,

What if you lose the words to read?

You mend my scars with care,

But what if they persist to bleed?

Forever, a promise we made

Yet what if it fractures and breaks?

In your heart, I find my space,

But what if it begins to ache?

You name me your guiding moon,

Yet each night, I dim and fade,

For though I brighten your path,

What if you seek shelter in shade?

You claim I am home to you,

But what if a garden you chase?

People often opt for finer things,

then what if i am replaced?

These 'what ifs' haunt my thoughts,

Though I pretend to disagree,

For all these what ifs leaves my mind,

when you say, you love me.
