Love Poem: If Only

If Only

If only my feelings 
were like a faucet 
that I can turn
on and off...

If only I had control
of my thoughts
then I would
not be thinking of you...

If only I had control 
of my mind
I’d switch it off
to block out the images of you…

If only the music 
would stop
I’d be rid of this need
to dance with you...

If only I could orb
to times long gone
where I was 
still in control... 

in control of who I was without you, 
in control of my thoughts, 
in control of my feelings,
in control of my mind... 

now I’m lost...
drifting along with
IF ONLY on my mind...
