And If (poem)
And if a nighttime stole away the light
A dark foreboding ambles down the street
The mornings dimmed for memories to write
A colorless tomorrow doomed to greet
-
And if the scent of sweetness went away
The plain mundane would gain the rule of spring
As thoughts would turn to just another day
Fair melodies no longer meant a thing
-
And if the sands of time would cover all
The winds would blow our dust into our face
Those things which were are harder to recall
And clouds of dreams drift far from our embrace
-
The sunset bids a greeting to the moon
As in my sight forever comes in view
And all and ifs will fall away too soon
At least I had this precious while with you
