What if
By some strange fate
What you desire
Is not what you are looking for?
What if
That one missing piece
Wasn’t where they said
You would find it waiting.
What if
All that you once had
Held dear and let go
Was all you ever needed to be whole
What if
When you saw that one you love
You feel sorrow, and not joy
And feel within them, death?
How do you cope?
How do you get back
Your past, your love, your life
When it is already buried?
What if
By some twist of fate
This reality was a lie
And you were the one.
The one who
If desired could change it
What could you do?
What would you do?
I guess
You don’t have to worry
You will never have to reshape reality.
But I will.
((This is the opening for a story that I will eventually get down onto paper.... I hope.))

I like the ending where you say You don't have to reshape reality but I will. Good point because no body else can change your reality. Only you can, you can make it what you want considering your surroundings. I really like this poem.
Like I tell my son, What if never was so don't worry about it. I know sometimes it's hard. But try to focus on the I can's and then the what if's won't be what if's anymore, there will be a deffinate answer to your wonders, when opportunity knocks answer if you fail, oh well at least you know and you can move on to something else with no worries about what if's, you can have anything you want you just can't have everything, go after the one thing that matters most to you, leave the rest for others to follow, those other things you don't really need anyway. You have a great mind and you know how to use it, I am just playing off your words, what if is really thought provoking if sent in the right direction, live life with no regrets, live, love, laugh, and learn, great wrie, good job, thanks,
I believe all the questions you have in this poem.
It is really wonderful.Also really easy to understand.It is mostly true about all of the questions in this poem.Great job!

An intriguing poem with a big "What If". I agree with James, that this could use some work finding a form, which of course would give it a smoother flow.
I think that nearly every minute of every day we are making life changing decisions without realising it.
Your piece points this out.
Two of the biggest words in any language are WHAT IF.
As when someone misses their plane trip and the plane crashes.
