The Fourth will Always be with Me

When you told me how you liked me to dress, I obeyed.

When you didn't acknowledge my inner beauty, I felt ugly. 

When you told me my dreams were unrealistic, I woke up.

                                                                                                    Did you ever stop to think maybe you were being unrealistic?

Fourths are when I remember warmth.
It was the type of warmth that led to an unexpected sunburn.
I can still feel my skin healing from the beautiful, yet damaging rays.
Fourths will always make me smile.
Fourths will also send chills down my spine and remind me:
Wear sunscreen every day.

What if?

What if there was an eight day? What would you do with it?

What if a heaven truly does exist? Would you become a better person?

What if you went to sleep earlier? Would those dark circles under your eyes disappear?

What if you had an extra limb? Which would you clone?

What if Earth traveled clockwise? How would we refer to the rise and set of the sun and moon?

What if your pets could speak? What do you think is the first thing they would say to you?

What if teleportation existed? Where would you travel to first?

What if Trump becomes president? Would you continue to live in this country?

What if people always went through with doing things they said they'd do? Would that make human beings dedicated or dangerous?
