Will You?
If I was a lie
Would you still believe?
Waking up to find I’m just your imagination
Will you doubt the words I’ve said,
The pictures I’ve painted,
The smiles I’ve stolen,
And the pains I’ve inflicted?
If we slept in the same bed
And you woke up alone
Will you still believe last night,
And wait in bed for breakfast?
If we were to go on a date
And I’m a little late
Will you doubt that I’d come,
Or would you wait however late for me to make it?
If I was your smile today
And caused you nothing but grief tomorrow
Will you in turn bring back my smile?
Will you weather the storm and wait on the sun,
Or would you just walk away from me,
Like a bad memory?
If I were to kiss you
Even when we are just friends
Will you forgive me?
Or will you kiss back?
Will you let me return the favor,
As you have stolen my heart?
If you were cold and lonely
Will you hug memories of me,
And hope they keep you warm?
When the silence is nagging at you
Will you replay my voice?
When you’re on a date with some random guy
Will you think of me inappropriately,
And hug yourself when you remember my touch?
If we loved then we lost each other
Will you make an attempt to find us back together,
Or just put a dying love out of its misery?
If we’ve never seen each other
Will you still trust these feelings to last,
And remain, whenever or whether we eventually see?
If you caught me in a kiss with another
Will you see it as cheating,
Or take the slightest assumption that he kissed me?
Would you do it my way
Just so no one else pleases me like you do?
Will you forgive me when I make mistakes,
Or lie about forgiveness and nag about it later?
Will you forget my past and wrongdoings
And enjoy the now?
If you were me
Would you love you?

December 08, 07:44His number Mandy? I got my eyes on you *turkey thief version* Lovely poem, but should I say poets envision too much? *insert Pensive smiley* a guy or girl like this would still be hibernating inside a capsule hanging inches away from molting lava, or deep within an ice wall. But beautiful poem nonetheless, first kd poem I ever actually read.
