If... Poem by Jose Milton Carvalho

If I was life, I'd next to you on every morning
If I was sorrow, I'd driving away from you and yours
If I was love, I'd be waiting for you in a corner
If I was solitude, I'd embrace every tear you'd share
If I was friendship, I'd smile at you and tell you the truth
If I was death, I'd admire you from a distance
If I was a poem, I wouldn't have words to describe
If I was anything but air, I'd be forever inside you
