If that moment had been
Delayed, by just that
Infinitesimal second;
I know, I would have seen you.
If that plea had been
Received, just that bit
More openly, all that unspoken
Pain, and questions…
You know, I would have been
A better human.
If my hand had reached out
And held on to yours-
Perhaps you’d have regained
Your footing; and then, for sure
I know, we’d have been blessed.
Sadly, all I can say now is-
What If…
