if



if ...


if i knew her loving arms
i could say she holds me
like the sun holds the earth
in the darkness of deep space
but i do not know her arms
i do not know her warm embrace

if i knew the scent of her skin
i could easily write in rhyme
how the dawn's waking air
explodes into a rich bouquet
but i do not know her fragrance
i do not know her that way

if i knew the taste of her lips
i could describe just how sweetly
her kisses fall on mine
like drops of morning blue
but i do not know her kisses
i do not know her like others do

if i knew the sound of her nighttime whispers
i could capture every wishful note
and pen them to a simple song
of true and hopeful hearts
but i do not hear her softest voice
i do not hear where that music starts

if i knew the depth of her smiling eyes
i guess i could find the best of words
to share her perfect beauty
so completely rare and wonderfully whole
but i do not see into the depth of her eyes
and still despite all that i do not know
i feel her love touching my soul
