If I were a poet.

If I were a poet, I would wrap you in my words

roll you off my tongue with my soothing voice.

Meet your every desire with the motion of my pen

making your heart race every now and then.

If I were a poet, you would be my only passion

my inspiration in a world that to me is gone.

If I were a poet, with you as my one and only love

I would lower to my knees daily and thank the lord above.

And if I were truly a poet, I would swim through your deep oceans

speak of all the wonder I see in the calming darkness of your eyes.

And if I could find the words to describe my feelings for you,

I could tell of the way my passion strongly flows so true.
