My Beloved

If words meant anything at all,
I’d say to you each one aloud.
If pride stood tall for anything,
I’d do what it took to make you proud.
If a song could persuade your heart,
I would sing forever.
If trying was worth while,
I would endure the endeavor.
If a look would change your mind,
I’d do my best to make you see.
That if it came down to forever,
I would choose you and me.
But if it was meant to be,
Surely you would come back to me.
And if love was a precious gift,
It would be wrapped with a bow.
And if wisdom was wise,
Then you would know,
That it is I, who loved you from the start.
But who am I,
To tame such a wild heart?
