Senses Wonder

I hear the same things Every passing day- The sound my feet make Walking up stairs- Laughter- Sighs- Sniffles; But, what would It sound like If you walked the stairs By my side? If I heard you laugh, Sigh lovingly, Sniff to hold back a tear? What if I heard your voice Say my name? I hear Birds singing- Distant whispers- Winds blowing- Knocking on doors, But what if I heard You sing my favorite love song? Whispering in my ear Or the wind blowing Through your hair? But, what if, one day, You locked me out? What if you didn't Let me in? I see sunsets- Birds flying in freedom- Young love- Flowers in bloom- But how great would it be If we admired the sunsets And found freedom together? If you took my hand And we enjoyed The belittled things in life? What if You never let go? I see Lights- Night time- Shooting stars- People walking, But what if You saw the Light in me? What if we Watched the stars And made a wish? But, what if I saw you walk away Like all those other people? What if You never came back? I feel Gentle nightfall Come upon me- My feet wanting To get up- My mind dreaming Of what to say, But, what if, Under the stars, We danced? What if we talked About lovely springtime? What if We never woke up? I feel A soft chill- A loving presence- A yawn coming- My hands held together, But, what if, You warmed me With your heart? What if You didn't leave, And we talked all night? But, what if, You never held me? What if You were never there?
