What if? 

Lena Quezada

What if it blinds me?

What if I can’t see the signs that scream “turn around”?

What if it changes the way I talk?

What if it changes the way I act?

What if it changes me entirely?

What if it causes me to lose people?

What if they warn me?

What if I choose to ignore them?

What if it ruins everything?

What if it isn’t worth it?

What if it is worth it?

What if it makes everything better?

What if I learn from it?

What if they don’t warn me?

What if they stick around?

What if it teaches me?

What if it fixes the way I seem?

What if it fixes the way I am?

What if the signs say “keep going”?

What if it opens my eyes?
