What was there <br />Before you were born; <br />Was there a point- <br />Was something torn? <br /> <br />Was there a portal, <br />Was there a door; <br />Can you remember- <br />Just before? <br /> <br />What was there <br />Before you were; <br />Was it a seed- <br />Or potent air? <br /> <br />Maybe a keyhole, <br />Or just a crack? <br />You ought to find out- <br />Before you go back.<br /><br />Patti Masterman<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/before-you-go-back/
