If Love Were A Number Poem by Sylvia Chidi

Every night and everyday
Mere thoughts of you brighten my day
Your eyes, your smile, the way you walk
I s enough to lift me up as I hit bottom rock!

And it takes two to bear these fruits of love
This love was decided before we were born
I sit here lingering in a moment of passion
Thinking! Seven days a week has long gone

Twelve months of love reduced to none
But the memories of you still turn me on
I weep as I remember us laugh and run
Whilst you slept I loved to watch you turn

Now if love were a number
I will write you as number one in my book
Wishing you were here a bit longer
You captured me not only with your looks!

I can feel my fingers through your hair
I touch the wind wishing you were here
That musky smell and husky voice
And momentarily I sadly rejoice

Now if love were a number
You will always be my number one
I only wish I was stronger
To chase with you, your dreams of fun
