What If
These two words can mean a lot, some will say, "What if I did,"
others will say, "What if I did not."
Are they showing their true colors, or are they hiding behind others.
The words what if can at times be happy or sad,
the words what if can at times be good or bad.
I sometimes say, "What if I had fame," but had I not succeeded
then the words what if could have been the blame.
Some say, "What if I were never born?'
what if you weren't, would the world had been torn?
People often say, "What if I were rich,"
people often say, "What if I were poor?'
Would the world have opened up to me,
or would the doors have shut for me not to see.
What if there is a Heaven, what if there is a hell.
Think about this and don't misbehave or dwell.
So don't sit and think what if there was,
and don't sit and think what if there was not.
Because the life that God gave you,
these two words, "What if," should be forgot
