If I could.

If I could write a song,
that would make you believe.
There is nothing I regret more,
than when I let you leave.
I would sing it to the world,
to make them all hear.
That life improved tenfold,
when ever you were near.

If I could paint a picture,
that would catch your eye.
I would hang it from the moon,
if only I could fly.
And each time you looked at it,
people would know.
That I was the fool,
the one who let you go.

If I could write a poem,
that would tell you how I feel.
I hope the words could describe,
my love for you is real.
I would recite it over and over,
for the rest of my life.
In the mere hope of doing so,
would make you my wife.

If I could plant a seed,
that would grow tall and proud.
Beautifully coloured flowers,
and leaves of silk would sprout.
I would carve our names in the base,
like lovers often do.
To show generations to come,
for me there was always only you.
