Did I Reach You?

If I could put into words the things I see and feel
If I could make you take a journey with me 
You’d see, oceans splashing with vigor children making sand castles
on the beach
Brilliant flowers swaying in the breeze
And tease

If I could paint you a picture
It would be of lovers in the night carefree embracing in a tight hold
together in a mold
Behold

If I could make you feel you would be filled with joy
That you can walk, run, and breath the air with no ailments
No worries, no cares

If I could make you teary
You could feel sadness from loss and loneliness
If I could make you taste it would be food the hangs a wonderful
Flavor on your tongue and forever lingers for more

If I could make you hear
It would be the sounds of children crying
violence, and laughter from a far noise made by man and silence

If I could make you care 
There’d be more help for the needy and kindness to the old 
Warm blankets in the cold 
If I could make you see ,feel, hear, care anything at all 
Then I reached you
