If there was a time
I would have covered myself with your sweet gentle smile
I would have lusted and craved for your company
I would have clothed myself with your happiness
And bathed myself with your tears
If there was a time
I would have soared higher in the heavens with you
Like an unrelenting eagle pursuing it’s prey
I would have carved out your name on my mind of stone, not my heart of flesh
So a slight thought of you may never escape the walls of my brain
If there was a time
I would have moved heaven and earth for you
Talking and reminiscing about life ahead of us
I would have loved for time to go on and on, like eternity
So I can soliloquize about our moments spent all day
If there was a time
I would have yearned for your caress
Like having an enigmatic awakening from winter into summer
Which sparks thoughts of never ending memories
For I long for you as I do for summer
Now, an undeniable truth overwhelms me
The truth causes ripples in my blood and
The thought of it sickens my heart
For time is like a passing wind, with it’s swiftness,
Steals away precious moments
Now, am lost in time
Dreaming of an impossible future
My only consolation is clinging to memories back then
Fate ate the life in you, and all of it was short-lived
