What if?

What if time could be erased, and steps could be retraced?
What if mistakes could be undone, and battles could be won?
What if moment could be seized, and love could be received?
What if hearts could be unbroken, and words could be unspoken?
What if dreams could be realized, and hopes could be revised?
What if actions could be changed, and lives be rearranged?
Then the "what is" wouldn't matter, because the "what if" would hold the power.
And life would be ever changing and no progress could be made, for when life is focused on the past our future comes undone.
And since the past cannot be changed, looking back is a waste of time.
One should focus her eyes ahead and make the most of what could be acquired.
