If I Could

If I could dream reality...
I could be happy...

If I could envision myself...
I could understand...

If I could believe in faith...
I could be at peace...

If I could know the answers...
I would be content...

If I truly knew myself...
I would be scared...

If I saw others as a mirror...
Would I see myself...
Or a reflection...
I wish I was.

I always like the "If" poems, and this one especially. You did a terrific job with it, Steve. Bravo! My friend.
