If You Were

If you were a song
I would sing you forever

If you were a dance
I would dance with you endlessly

If you were a movie
I would watch you with smiles

If you were a house
I would live inside you all my life

If you were a light
I would use you to find my path

If you were a book 
I would read you all day

If you were a guitar 
I would touch your strings

If you were food
I would have you as my favorite dish

If you were a bird
I would mount on your wings and fly

If you were air
I will breathe you forever and ever

I love this kind of poem: (I call it "list" form, where you begin always with the same phrase. Very nice!
