If
Michael Jay Jan 2017
If
If I were your light,
     I would conquer all shadows
     From your mind, your heart, your soul.

I would chase your demons
     Until they expired. No more hiding
     Under bed nor closet. No more ghouls.

If I were your hero,
     I would keep you safe.
     I would heal your broken wings.

My strength would fortify,
     Reassure and comfort. You'd have peace
     Of such as the nightingale sings.

If I were your moon,
     You could fall asleep in the embrace
     Of my glow. Darkness no more.

But if I were the moon,
     You must be the sun. It is your love
     I reflect. Your love that I adore.

Destruction permeates the room
You can feel it
You can feel it

If it continues we're heading for doom
You can believe it
You can believe it

The scent of hate is pungent
The need to win is urgent
I can't fight this sadness
Let alone destroy its madness

It seems I've already lost
It's over
It's over

— The End —
