If I were a painter You would ask me to paint you a story Telling the world of how incandescent life can be Using that time we ran through the sprinklers at a park Glistening in the moonlight at one in the morning As inspiration
If I were a musician I would compose a new song To act as the soundtrack To the time we sat at the top of the hill Saying our goodbyes With only our foreheads pressed together Like praying hands
If I were an architect I would build a space for us So that you could always come back To something that reminds you of me. You could keep your knick knacks here To help fill the house of your smell For me to visit while you're away.
If I were an astronomer I would make you a constellation To help you find your bearings Whenever you feel out of place.
If I were anything else Anything with more talent Would I still mean such little to you?
