What If... Poem by Usha Pisharody

What If...



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...
