If something happens that you cannot explain <br />Like a warm summer rain <br />Cleansing the air <br />Cleansing all despair <br />If you knew the answer, what would you gain? <br />If something happens that you cannot explain <br />Like the crash of a bullet train <br />Where hundreds die <br />And millions cry <br />If you knew the answer, would it ease the pain? <br />If something happens that you cannot explain <br />Putting your relationship in a strain <br />Lies behind you back <br />Love falling off the track <br />If you knew the answer, would it clean up the stain? <br />If something happens that you cannot explain <br />Why you walk around in a ball and chain <br />Thoughts of regret <br />Pain you want to forget <br />If you knew the answer, would it do any good to complain? <br />Life has many questions <br />Like many unread suggestions <br />Running around inside your head <br />They are better left unsaid <br />The intentions in your soul <br />Can ricochet out of control <br />Let’s hope we live to see another day <br />Just like the one that got away <br />If something happens that you cannot explain <br />Like shooting stars falling like rain <br />You can’t believe your eyes <br />As a dream quickly dies <br />If you knew the answer, it would drive you insane<br /><br />Alfred Ramos<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/if-something-happens-2/
