This is a poem I wrote when I was falling in love with my Heart. It never went anywhere other than a powerfully strong friendship, but sometimes I still wonder, what if. The title is a phrase I used to use alot.

 

Fair Enough

If…
If I were where I could
And you were where you could
Would you?
Would you want me?
If…
If I were not broken
And you were not hurt
Would you?
Would you want me?

What if’s and maybe’s
Sometimes they rattle about
Echoing back and forth
in what passes for a brain

And I have to ask
Would you want me?
