If I Were Your Love
Inspired by Bob Dylan song : Make You Feel My Love
The sparkling dawn lights bright
My heart’s horizon of longing in glow
Spreads the sunburst colors of delight
On my love’s sparkling meadow.
In my mind’s valley of yearning
I’ve traced a trail to reach you
The fervent clouds of my craving
Melt in the sea of emotion I swim in blue.
I live now only to seek you
I’m sunk in the depth of loneliness
You’ll take me to the blooming valley of hue
My longing will turn to flower of finesse.
In the scorched life of deprivation
I’m desiccated like the desert lake
Give me the soothing rains of elation
Make me an adored oasis not fake.
When the opaque nights of despair fall
The storm shatters your somber skies
When the stars disappear in raging squall
You’ll see the rays of hope in my eyes.
I’ll kindle for you a candle of divine glow
Like the full moon in your sky it’ll shine
You’ll rise from the desolate debris flow
In the dark night I’ll be your light benign.
Your essence is my second shadow
Fused with the motif of my feeling
How many candles I’ve lighted there aglow
You’d know if I were your love waiting.
