Would You . .

If I told you of my pain, would you care Would you understand and tell me you love me too Or would you turn and walk away If I wrote to you and spoke of my broken soul Would you cry and whisper to me in the night Or would you shake your head and leave me If I told you of my hurt and where and when it was born Would you feel the same way and tell me so Or would you turn away and leave me behind If I wrote to you and explained all my confusion Would you understand and tell me its all going to be okay Or would you throw me away like a . . . forlorn dream If I screamed out all of my pain at losing you Would you write to me and tell me you’ll stay instead Or would you cut away all our ties If I stood before you and reached out my hand Would you take it Or would you leave it empty and cry no more for me If I told you I love you and have since . . . Would you believe in me still Or see me now as a . . . façade of a lingered wish If I whispered to you from your side of my soul’s . . . Would you breathe of how much you care deeply for me once more Or would you really tear me from your life Would you . . . Would you . . . Will you . . .
