    If

    If day was night
    And night was day
    Would anyone find their way?
    If love was hate
    And hate was love
    Would anyone believe in God above?
    Of nights where our days
    And the sun never shined
    Would people look for something to find?
    If the days where our nights
    And the moon never came out
    Would people always see and just shout?
    If everyone loved and forgot about hate
    Would we all just meet our fate?
    If everyone hated and blocked out love
    Would any of us end up peacefully above?
    If the past was the future
    And the future our past
    Would anyone find something that lasts?
    If pain was joy
    And joy was pain
    Would everyone just live in vain?
    If my dreams became a reality
    And reality a dream
    Would anyone ever be so keen?
    If life was death
    And death be life
    Would there ever be a strife?
    An answer to these queries I do so seek,
    With out one, I shall stay so meek.

    The eternal question(s). Very interesting and thought provoking. I enjoy your style and look forward to reading more.

    By and large well done. There are a few lines where the last word seems to be chosen for rhyme rather than meaning. With just a little more work this could be outstanding.

    Poetry is what is lost in translation.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
