What If...? Poem by Cece Chisolm

What if I'm not as pretty as you think?
What if I have scars on my face?
What if everything changes once you blink?
Would I no longer be in first place?

Would you even bother
to get to know me
Or would it be that much harder
to set me free?

What if I was meaner than you thought?
What if I have more issues than you knew?
What if all I did with you was fought?
What exactly would you do?

What if I say you're the one I want?
What if I have only eyes for you?
What if you were my prey, and I was on the hunt?
What if all of this was true.

What if I was abusive
and just saying things you want to hear
causing me to be very persuasive
would you still care?

What if I'm worried about certain things
Causing me not to let you in fully?
What if I told you this is just a fling?
Would that make me sound silly?

What if you were my baby
and I was your headache?
What if you say I love you, and I say I do too maybe?
What if all of this was an act, causing me to seem fake?

What if I always say you're wrong,
and I'm forever right?
What if we don't really get along
and I always start a fight?

What if some days I need Love
and other days I need sex?
What if certain days it's you I shove?
Would you stay or search for the next?
