what if??
what if you had never said those words to me?
we would never have laughed.
what if you had never said those words to me?
those promises and vows that i viewed as our sacred duty,
to commit solemnly in front of our Lord
we would never have made eachothers eyes light up,
to make eachother laugh
to make eachothers heart sing!
all those things we gave to eachother.
especially when we shared eachother under the candlelight.
especially, how we gave eachother promises of the future.
never knew it would be torn into shreds.
torn --what if that never happened?
maybe we would have been
warming eachother under the blankets on this cold winter night.
maybe i could have loved your coconut or vanilla
your pomegranite cheeks,
only to be licked
the way only my special love would animate your world,
maybe we would have been sharing the quiet,
knowing we had eachother there
simply just to be.
what if we had eachother?
We would have had the world.
