    Only If

    Every time I come home
    And open my door
    I realize that
    Love doesn’t live here any more

    I can’t turn
    Love off and on
    Sometimes I wish I could
    Cause now you’re gone

    I wish
    I could turn back time
    By doing that
    You and I would be doing fine

    Now it doesn’t matter
    Who was right or who was wrong
    All those arguments…. no
    We should have been getting along

    Now I’m stuck
    In a whirlwind
    Going in circles
    Not knowing when it will end

    How the world was
    A perfect place
    It’s what I thought
    When I looked at your face

    Staring at pictures
    In the frame
    Brings memories back
    That I try to hide deep down in my brain

    So many questions
    With no answers now
    Is this the end?
    My heartbeats have slowed down

    She was
    My first love
    It truly felt as if she
    Was sent from above

    It has been
    Two years
    Every night
    I fell asleep with tears

    Off to heaven
    She went
    Only if I was there
    That night of the accident


    Only If

    I KNOW HOW THE HEARTS FEELS TO LOSE THE ONE. IT HAS BEEN A YEAR AND A HALF SINCE I LOST MINE AND EVEN TO THIS DAY MY THOUGHTS ARE FULL OF HIM. THE THINGS THAT GO THRU MY MIND THINKING I COULD HAVE DONE SOMETHING.......ONLY IF

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
