If

If i gave you my heart on a platter
Would you hold it with tinderness
Or smash it with a hammer

Do I know allready
Or just take a chance
A cold heart will never romance

So I entrust my heart, with yours to dance
That light and love
May forever romance

Lovely poem Elizabeth! If - that is the question that borders on trust. It's like telling someone - I trust you to share in my possibilities. Well written.
