What if I knew who I was long before
If I believed in myself, would I be more
What if I could have seen you were unwell?
Would it have made a difference? I can't tell
What if I could do all the things I dreamed
If life was better than it seemed
Would I be all I'd wanted to be
If I'd known how to live confidently
Could I have a successful life
Live happily with a husband or a wife
If I hadn't believed those who shattered my trust
Would I have been able to do what I must
Could I have been so much more
A different person at my core
These thoughts swirl in my head now and then
The idea of "what if" and what could have been
But if life had been different for me
And I still had the old life's memory
I think I would miss that life, somehow
So instead of what if; I accept the person I am now

I grew up in a small town in Oregon. In 2nd grade (circa 1984), I was entered into a poetry contest. I won 3rd place and was awarded a small check and a certificate signed by President George Bush Sr. I have been writing ever since.
