“What if” is a world in itself
The fear of failure
And the possibility of triumph
Sit on a broken shelf
Teetering this way and that
Holding destiny in unsteady hands
Determining whether
We will succeed, or fall flat
The concern of high hopes
Getting shoved down
The worry over realizing your smile
Could be forced into a frown.
The only motivation
is the possibility of victory
All the while dreading the fact:
“What if” is contradictory
Even though there’s a risk involved
you can still fight
you can always try
To prevent your dreams from becoming dissolved
