WHAT IF?

The silence of the street deafens my mind.

Able to stand on my own I prop myself against the wall.

The street light glares at me and darkens my mind."

What if?

What if I walked down that road instead of the one I have taken?

Frustrated by the comfort of my familiar surrounding I pause yet again.

Would you be there waiting?

Would you remember me though we have not yet met?

What if?

If I let the light guide me will I get lost?

Perhaps then I will find myself.

Just as I take my first step forward I stop and think.

What if?

What if that is the road I took to get here?
