What Happens When

A Poem by Matthew Handel

By Matthew HandelPublished 5 years ago 1 min read

What happens if you cry for help in a soundproof room?

If you try to sweep without a broom

What happens if you try to fly without wings?

If you clean a cut and it stings

What happens if you talk without sound?

If you’re lost but never found

What happens if you fill that void?

If you never feel paranoid

What happens if you climb that hill?

If you recapture life’s thrill

What happens if life becomes clear?

If you can’t stop a happy tear

What happens if you find your feel?

If life becomes a movie reel

What happens is you become you.

Someone we need, that’s who.
