What If Someday Comes?
written by: Karin Porter
What would happen
If I saw you today?
Are you back in the game
And ready to play?
Would you stare in surprise
Or just walk away?
Would you dare say my name?
If you do, it’s OK
I’d love to see you
But still. I must say
Proceed at your peril
If you walk this way
Whatever it was
That drew you to me
Is tarnished by time
That’s what life’s done to me
Gone is my innocence
Lost is my charm
My smile has faded
I’m old and I’m jaded
Don’t judge me too harshly
I know what I am
But I never knew you
When I got close you ran
If Someday comes
And I see you again
I know I’ll still love you
But what happens then?
My name is Karin Porter. I am from Newton Upper Falls, MA. Writing has been my life long passion. My favorite writing is in my personal journals. I have regular day to day life journals, and others for my work experiences, gardening, childhood memories, and dreams/poetry. From 1991-2001 I wrote, edited and published "What's Brewin'", a fan newsletter all about the Boston Bruins hockey team. In those early Internet days, my newsletter helped connect Bruins fans from all over the world. I made many friends, having become pen pals with many of the people who subscribed. I started my blog "Life is What you Make it" in 2011. It is not a money maker, but it brings me personal satisfaction. I write posts about everyday life, and thinking positive. I am a certified Activity Director, who plans and implements activities for nursing home patients. My hobbies include photography, drawing, painting, cooking, and gardening. I LOVE animals more than life itself. God has been good to me!
