What came first,
the question or
the answer?
…
What if
I let myself ask
‘What if?’
…?
Simmer in the
dot dot dot.
What if this is it?
…
What
if he died?
What if I
held your hand?
…
What if the
Underground Railroad still existed?
… What
if I let go of fear?
What if she were white?
What if you were
right?
What if I smiled
back? …
What
if I was born in Baghdad?
… What
if we needed each other?
What if I
dreamed?
What if I
wrote them down? …
What if
I tried?
…
What if I
could make things better?
…
What if it all burned
down?
What if I laughed at
myself in the mirror - non-judgmentally?
What if I winked
back?
…
What if I chose to commit?
What if I don’t know
everything?
What if I gave love in this moment?
…
What if I could be
different?
… What
if I could leave?
What if I could be
vulnerable?
…
What if we
played for a whole afternoon?
What if I was wrong?
…
What if the
Underground Railroad still exists?
What
if I could be satisfied?
What if I was
missing something?
What if I let myself
feel?
…
What
if it were up to me?
… What
if I really asked how you are?
What
if I really listened?
What if slavery still exists?
…
What
if you weren’t in my life?
…
What if I didn’t blame
others?
…
What if this is it?
What if I was part of
the answer?
...
What if the answer is
too much?
...
Simmer in the
dot dot dot.
What if
I never find the
answer,
is the question still
important?
…
Yes.
