Theme : Longing
If You Can't

If you can�t
Hold me
Till eternity,
You can at least
Touch me
For a fleeting moment.

If you can�t
Give me
The sunshine
Of happiness,
You can at least
Bequeath me
A ray of joy.

If you can�t
Heal
My burning wounds,
You can at least
Caress
My tired scars.

If you can�t
Give me
A spring of commitment,
You can at least
Give me
An autumn
Of hope.

If you can�t
Stem the cascade
Of unshed tears,
You can at least
Dry
My moist eyes.

If you can�t
Sing
A lyric of love,
You can at least
Express
A comma of concern.

If you can�t
Join the neon lights
Of the procession
To my pyre,
You can at least
Light a solitary lamp
At my grave.

Sweetheart...
All I want
Is a little space
In a tiny corner
Of your heart,
Like
A footnote
In an autobiography.
