The Whatifs, The Who'sits and Coulduves

A day will come where you'll find yourself, seemingly, in the
                                                                
                                                                  middle
                                                                      of
                                                                 nowhere

You'll look to the left......................................................................................and you'll look to the right

You'll look straight ahead.........................................................................and you'll look straight behind

But for the life of you, you'll have no idea where you are or how you got there.

This, as it turns out, will not be important.

You'll spend far more time than you should wondering.......

You'll wonder about
         The Whatifs........
                 The Who'sits........
                        The Coulduves.........

         The Maybes..........
                The Howcomes.........
                        The Shoulduves..........

         The Almosts............
                The Socloses...........
                       The Whynots...........

You'll wonder and wonder but it simply won't matter because still, just simply, you won't know
What lies to the left.................................................................................................What lies to the right
What lies just ahead................................................................................................What lies just behind

After you've spent time wondering and wondering you'll realize the time has come to stop wondering and start wandering

You'll wander towards
          The Hopeso's........
                  The Iwishes..........
                         The Let'ssees............

You'll wander towards
          The Heregoesnothings............
                  The We'llfindouts..............
                         The Dreamsobigs............

You'll wonder why it took you so long to wander and leave behind The Whatifs, The Who'sits and Coulduves.

You'll wonder why it took you so long to wander from that place you didn't recognize, that place that you don't remember getting to.

It won't matter how long you stayed.

It won't matter which way you wander when you finally leave.

All that will matter is that you stop wondering, pick a direction,
                                                                                            anyone will do just fine,
                                                                                                                 And Start Wandering.
