What if those cells collide
what if the world beats to a different rhythm
What if our path is forked
What direction will we take
What if we have no choice
for the first time in our lives
What if things go smoothly
What if then we’re three
What if it gets hard at times
What if we do our best
What if something
we never thought was in us
well, what if it suits us
What if there’s a name
What if it’s etched across our hearts
becomes the story of our lives
What if it was for this
that we’ve unknowingly been waiting
What if putting our selfish
selves upon the shelf
well, what if we love it
What if in the fading light
we sit and smile at all we made
What if they sit
and smile with us too…
Thanks for reading.
