If...

by Rachel - Libra

If I were to stand still long enough
I would fell the earth move
In its slow, steady course

If I were to listen long enough
I would hear the sunset
At the edge of the ocean
Close to the end of time
And the beginning of life

If I were to look long enough
Straight into your eyes
I would be able to see
To the shadows of your heart 
And to the depths of your soul

If I were to laugh long enough
Those sounds of happiness
Would turn inot the music of angels
Heard only by you

If I were to love long enough
It would spread throughout your body
A warmth of sunliht on roses
After the first rain of summer
With droplets of water, shining like diamonds

If I were to live long enough
Taking in new breath each day
I would stay in this place forever
With you by my side
My strength is found in you
A steady hand long enough for me

Reason for writing:

    a man and one word...infatuation
