Maybe a God

If only you knew I felt this way
If only you could feel the same
If only I could wrap my arms around you
Hug you
Kiss you
Feel your warmth
Your love
Your light
If only your radiance wasn’t so overwhelming
Maybe I wouldn’t be ensnared
Maybe I wouldn’t be hypnotized
The silver of your eyes
Glowing with a metallic flare
The silky white of your hair
Flowing like a rich cloth scarf
If only you weren’t so cold
Maybe I could have a place there
In your heart
If only I could thaw you out
Break down your walls
Destroy your barriers
Maybe you could trust me
Love me
Have me
Need me
Want me
Maybe we could be happy together
Wait…
Who am I kidding
What am I thinking
Am I wrong in believing
Maybe a God could love me
