What If

what if I didn’t matter- would you think about me not here- or if I didn’t exist- ever never, would you shed a tear what if I were a mess- would you comb my hair or if we were in love- would you whisper in my ear what if I were hurt- would you say a prayer or if I didn’t come home- would that give you a scare what if I were injured would you be in despair, or if I got you upset- would that make you swear what if I were tired- would you give me a chair or if I were on the other side- would you give me a stare what if I were homeless- would you give me some socks to wear or if I already had one- could I make a pair what if I had no money- would you help pay my fare what if I were hungry- would you share, or if I wanted a steak- would you make it rare what if I ate too much- would you give me a glare or if I were round- could you make me square what if I had a flat- would you have a spare or if I got lost- would you send up a flare what if I fainted- would you give me some air or if I were Abe Lincoln- would I use foursquare what if I were a baby- would I want my teddy bear or if I cheated- in a game would you say I’m unfair what if I danced- would you call me Fred Astaire, or if I were a fruit- could I be a pair, what if I hit the lotto- would that make me a millionaire maybe so or even a billionaire what if that happened- would I be debonair or if I had a deck of cards- could I play solitaire what if I were santa- could I have a rein deer or downhill skier- would I take that dare what if I were just me- would you even care.
