If you can...
If you can close your eyes,
and hear nature's rhythm,
it would be just the both of us,
holding hands in this thoughtless world
If you can wish upon every star,
and make merry with the wind,
there shall I be in your heart,
I shall breathe the oxygen of omnipotence
you gave me
If you can dance to the sunlight,
so will I shine like your smile,
and our happiness,
and carry us to an immortal wilderness
If you can look into my eyes
and tell the time,
then you know that it is love
If you can...
If you can look at how the land
stretches like a canvas upon the earth,
and paint my existence,
so shall I live, by the believe in your heart
If you can speak in clarity
and make no flaws with this eloquence,
in a lightning faith,
so shall I be strong,
with the muscles of transparence
that your verbal gym has given me
If you can look deep inside
my heart, you shall see it is
a bottomless well that overflows
with the justification
of my eyes,
and the warmth of my smile,
and the tingle in my hands,
all because of you
If you can comprehend,
hear and unleash
the riddle of passion,
then I shall no more be a mystery,
and the wisdom of our lips,
shall run their full course
If you can walk
the steps of adoration,
and reach for the mountains,
I shall be the wings
that befriend you with the sky
If you can dance
to the tune of sanguinity,
I shall become light,
and no darkness shall
there be in your life
If you can wrestle with destiny
with persistence,
and change its course,
then our hearts shall be wed
with a pride,
that batters that of a lion,
and our valor shall know no limits
If you can see,
within me,
the clarity that you brought,
at my first sight,
then I shall be infinity,
limitless like eternity
If you can come into my arms,
strong and humble awaiting
your embrace,
my days shall always be daybreak,
and the sun shall never set,
since I found you.
