If I Could Turn Back The Hands Of Time Poem by ObiGod Chidi CC

If I could turn back the hands of time
I would have, without a diamond dime
Bought your angelic heart to be mine
Draw my feelings bold with a crystal line
Make it beam the sweetest punch line,
Which your heart will feast and underline.


If I could turn back the hands of time
To laud you again as a perfect paradigm
Of beauty which the creator did overdesign
Upon your crown would be my purple ensign
To your virgin bosom my love I would assign,
Far from all flirts my prodigal eyes did resign.


If I could turn back the hands of time
To the season love blossoms in bright prime;
Our hearts, the hands of fate would entwine
With adamantine ring joining yours to mine
As your knee bend in joy with offering of wine
And mine fulfills your dreams as goals I divine.

If I could turn back the hands of time
I would have boldly committed the crime
Of caressing your holy temple ripe as pine
Stole your crested kiss sweet as a pure brine
Lick your fruits delicious as milky saccharine
Let you fit into my vacuum as perfect spine.


But I can't turn back the hands of time
Nor tame my regrets loud as a sick chime
Your farewell I can't swallow as dry chyme
For the chemistry failed without an enzyme
We were once a sonnet with a broken rhyme
Yet in my heart this forever tastes as thyme.
