If only
My thoughts were kept
Inside my head
If only
My heart was held
Inside my breast
If only
My words were silent
Inside my mind
If only
My smile never faltered
From my face
If only
My eyes had sparkled
Never melting tears
If only
My hands held flowers
Behind my back
Perhaps then
Perhaps
I would be the one
Perhaps I would be
The one

Feelings are meant to flow… we shouldn’t lock them up. A damn can open and let go of the pressure and all the mess carrying around.
