IF ONLY
by ADRIAN
If only angry words could cease,
And a end to all the fears,
To find a little of the peace,
To wipe away all tears.
If only not lay the blame,
Because what would that be,
A reason for things to be the same,
And not what we both should see.
If only I thought before I spoke,
Trying not to shout and curse,
Tears well up and begin to choke,
Its making matter worse.
If only I responded with a smile,
Instead of with a frown,
If only I thought for just a while,
And not have my head bowed,
If only I hadn't been so selfish,
But thinking just of you,
Eyes shut tight and with a wish,
That’s what I want to do..
I miss you each and every day,
When you are not near,
There are things I want to say,
As I blink away a tear.
Just for you my heart will still beat,
My love will never go away,
Just my fears to defeat,
I love you more than words can say.
