What if there was no past?
What if every morning we woke anew?
If we didn’t remember the last

What if there was no future?
What if all we did was in the moment?
If we didn’t need to secure the final suture

What if all we had was now?
What if it was just a single second with nothing attached?
If we weren’t worried about the final bow

What if we could speak without constraint?
What if we weren’t concerned with the ifs and buts?
If we didn’t care how the words could taint

Would we say what we’ve been feeling all along?
Or would we be left silent with it all on the line?
If it were only the present, would it all go wrong?
