Privilege

A love that went quite deep

I wish that your lips were pressed upon mine.

But had they not been pressed upon others '

You never would have found me.

Had you not before been loved and loved another,

You never would have known what you want in life.

Never would have found me.

Had you not experienced leaps of faith and gave your all

And then had been tossed aside like a prop,

You never would have found me.

And if I had not died,

You never would have given me life again,

I would not have had the privilege to find you.
