If It Hurts....Can I Tell You?

If it is something harmful.....Should you stop it?
If the world stops revolving.....Can someone turn it?
If love exists....Can you show me?
If I make you happy....Why aren't you around?
If your smile shine.....Why must you hide it from me?
If you won't take my heart...How would you like me to wrap it?
If words could move you....Why can't mine even budge you?
If life is spent trying to find you....How can I keep you?
If my heart hurts this much with you...Why must you leave me?
If I was allowed to hold you..I don't think that I would ever let go!
If I could have you....I would find a way to make it last!



Out of all these if's...I feel that if I was allowed the chance to show what kind of 
man I would be for you. The only "if" you would ask is,"If I had never met 
you....How would I have ever felt this happy?"

You can't begin to understand the feelings going through my mind as I sit here 
and think about you. All these feelings could maybe one day sway you and 
convince you of the possibilities and the happiness I can show you....

I have spent my entire life without you. I know how much it sucks without this 
feeling. I understand that without you life wouldn't be that special because I know 
that there is someone like you that can do this to me. And if you choose to not 
give me a fighting chance.

Then my live would feel dreary. I know that eventually time heals all wounds, but 
you are a cut that I never want to heal.
By mere words and phrases.
