Poem: Hypotheticals

Hey, Guys and Gals. Sorry it took so long. I am tired from Band Tour and I needed to catch up on so much homework. So here it is, even how late it is. I am about to fall asleep…..

Hypotheticals

Hypotheticals. 
Our life is often
Plagued by hypothicals.
They are specifically
The “What if“‘s in the science.
But they can also be used
To explain different
Scenarios
That we wish could be real life.

Our human brains,
Are built with the curiosity
To learn , to feel, and to be.
We wonder what will happen,
If this will happen or
If we will do this, will change?  

We can build
Outcomes based on our background knowledge,
But we often want to test it.  
We want to see
Whether we were right
Or if we were wrong.
If we were close,
or if we were in a different ballpark.

Sometimes, 
We want it to be a certain
Outcome.
We want it to happen,
But the courage to make it happen
Is what holds us back.

It holds us back with unanswered questions.
Will it really ever happen?
What is she doesn’t like it?
What if doesn’t like me?
This is really hard to do.
She won’t like it.
He doesn’t like me.

Soon the questions are
Too much to bare.
What if-What if-What-if?! 
The moment we realize that
We can’t get it until we do it,
Courage builds and you do it.
sometimes, we got to put it all aside,
See that tomorrow’s new day
And grab it.
