What If?

What If Poem

Rossi Per. 9



What if?



What if all my friends changed?
Would I still be friends with them?
What if they judged me?
Would I be looked at in a bad way?

What if they all turned against me?
Would I make a resolution to the problem?
What if I got walked all over?

Would I be able to stand up for myself?
What if they stopped talking to me?

Would I go and make new friends?
What if my friends didn’t support me?
Would I prove them wrong?
What if they got jealous?

Would they ever talk to me again?
What if they did illegal things?
Would I be a follower or a leader?
What if I could put a reset button on this?
Would I use it on my friends?

What if I had true friends?

Would I be happy again?

Friends come and go but true friends always stay.

What if all your friends were true?



"What If" I go Back

This poem is called "WHAT IF".
  





"What If”
What if I didn’t follow the rules at home?
Would I get in a lot of trouble?
What if I didn’t come home on time?
Would I not be able to go out the next day?
What if I didn’t text my grandma when I got somewhere in the car?
Would I not be able to drive next time?
What if I argued about everything with my grandparents?
Would I have to move?
What if my T.V was way to loud?
Would I get it taken away?
What if I went behind my grandparents back for something?
Would I lose all of their trust?
What if I didn’t do what my chores?
Would I lose some respect in the house?
What if I ignore my grandparents?
Would they ignore me?
What if I didn’t ask to go out?
Would I have to come home earlier?
What if I did all of this?
Would it all be worth the punishment?

What if I ran away to the forest?

What if?

What if I ran away to the forest?
Run away from this demented world
Be surrounded by nature
Shrouded by peacefulness
Not a single thought on my mind
The days pass by quickly

What if I take in the beauty of the things around me?
Day by day, hour by hour, minute by minute, & second by second
Watch the seasons pass
Watch the trees grow & change frequently like the people that once surrounded me
They made me stressed
Made me worry about what I looked like
What I acted like

What if this is why I ran away?
To be in a surrounding that makes me appreciate the beauty around me & in me
To appreciate life for what it is
To appreciate the fact that even though there is so much evil & ugliness in this world
The smallest things
That you would have never expected
Are the ones full of beauty
You just have to look deeply & study them
To see just how great they are

What if you ran away to the forest too?
I know you'd love it here, I just do
So for a while with me wont you stay?
& we'll go on with our lives for another day
Not knowing where each turn will take us next
