What If?
Mommy!I know you were young
You dreamed of me all your life
You named me a thousand times
You swore that you would love me
What if I had become a doctor
And saved people from disease?
What if I was a diplomat
Ending wars and stopping the killing?
What if I was a poet?
The one who wrote the poem that changed the world
What if I was the Christ Child
Coming to save all mankind
What if Mommy
What if I had looked into your eyes and you loved me?
What if Mommy?
What if?
What if you had not murdered me
Before I had the chance to show you who I was?
What if?
