If I Could... Poem by TracyLee Eckstein

If I could
I would

Make your burdens my own
Endure all your pain and sorrow
Make all sombre feelings to you unknown
Make you life deepfully joyful, mine can be shallow

I dont mind because if I could
I would

I wish you could see yourself through my eyes:
Your twinkling eyes when you smile
How having you alive is so worth while
How you have so much more than you think to offer
I hoped that one day all this you would realise

And yet all the pain has made you frail and whither
Because go willingly when misery says: 'come hither'

If I could
I would
Lead life which is miserable
For your life to be incredible

I love you so that if I could
I would.
