Love Poem: If Only
Janis Thompson Avatar
Written by: Janis Thompson

If Only

if only maybe onetime
it would turn out differently
and that would be the sometime
love reflects identity

if only for a moment when
the slightest twinkle in the eye
clearly sends the signal then
that he will be your guy

if only maybe sometimes
what was left was what was right
and on that day the sun shines
making life so bright

if only for a second the heart
beats to happiness
it’s then the heaven’s blessings start
the road to blissfulness

if, only, maybe, sometimes
words too large to grasp
rarely is it that we find
whatever we may ask
