What and If

What if I could write us a new lullaby?

Something sweet 

To sing me to sleep

What if I could move the heavens to know you’d be my tomorrow?

Erase my sorrow 

And buy back the time I could only ever borrow 

What if mortality never built us a prison?

Society never a cage 

And tensions lain to rest in their grave

What if I made us a snow globe to live in forever?

Young and free and frozen in time

Sleepless in our endless prime  

Promise me,

When it’s bittersweet 

And the sunset lingers on the horizon 

You’ll remember me in reverie
