What If

What If

A Poem by Brandon Mathis

What if my life didn’t matter?

What if the mirrors were to shatter?

What if I couldn’t have her?

What if my whole world was based around hapless?

What if I were to slide off my own path?

 

I’ll follow this through until the end

With every problem and frustrations

What if every road was a new beginning?

And there were no broken ends to mend

Maybe there wouldn’t be any more sins

 

What if my life didn’t bring any shame?

I will always live in misery with the blame

What if I could turn back time and make it all change?

A different way people could see me not lie with this hate

What if we didn’t have to complain of our pain?

 

Every turn brings me back to a dark street

What if I forgot how to breathe or believe?

What if you’re the reason that I always bleed?

I drop to my knees and beg of you please

Just let me heal and release me

What if I was just your memory?

 

Once again this is the question of what if

Every road is a hapless broken end

What if this is the calm in the storm?

And here comes the pains worst

What if this world only wanted me to hurt?

Very mysterious, I did stumble a bit on line 7 "With every problem and frustrations." That was the only part that didn't quick click w/ me. However you turned it right around with the line right after I have to say I enjoyed this thoroughly.
