If I could heal
This rift, this damage
I would do so
I am no healer
Nor prophet I
Nor guide to light the path
I’m just a smile
That led the innocent
To their dark side
I’m just the voice
That sought to sing glory
But played a dirge
If I could forgive
Do so entirely
Take it all upon me
I yet would try
To do one good
Before I die

“If” 2 simple letters that hold such promise, hope and desire. I have a similar story written a few months back about “If.” Love yours here.
Thanks so much Ray!! π π
I’ll settle for a box of chocolates and a packet of ciggies.
LOL, hopefully life will provide!!! π π
Strange think about “IF” is that it bears different desires for everyone. Loved it.
( Wish of an unborn)
” If I could see the world,,
I would ask for mercy
A place peaceful and quiet
and serene history
No killing for race and gender
no discrimination based on creed
A place where we live together
share a bond of harmony
let me breathe the same air
and see the same world as you see”
Love it, fantastic poem! Thanks for sharing!! π π
