Something to Think About

Think About It

How would you feel?
Imagining
Someone sharing time with me
How would you feel?
Imagining
The two of us taking tea
That we’d be sitting here
So warm and cosily
How would you feel?

How would you feel?
Waiting
For the phone to ring
How would you feel?
Waiting
And silently wondering
What would the future bring?
Not knowing anything
How would you feel?

How would you feel?
Knowing
Someone else was sleeping next to me
How would you feel?
Knowing
Another’s face would be the first I’d see
That I’d awake with someone
Lying next to me
How would you feel?
