"What if not?"

We sat there
Brains thinking
Hearts beating
Listening, to the voices in our heads saying
Turn around but don't look back
What if?
Turn around with your eyes closed
Or turn around but in a different point of view
What if?
No
What if not?
That shall forever be the question
Not what we would gain by doing it
But what we would lose by not

We sat there
Brains thinking
Hearts beating
Lungs breathing
Ears hearing

We sat there
Just sat
No one moved
No one at all
Not even when the room went dark
