If I

by Rupradha Mookerjee



If I was a candle I would burn myself to keep you warm, If I was sunshine I would peep through to see your charm, If I was a rainbow I would brighten myself to make you smile, If I was an angel I would try my best to make your life worthwhile. If I was a drizzle I would pour myself to keep you cool in May, If I was time, I would give my all to forever make you stay, If I was a nightingale I would serenade all day to give you bliss, If I was the girl you wanted I would always welcome you with a kiss. If I was fire I would set myself ablaze to save you from cold, If I was silence I would break myself to hear your words untold, If I was a banyan tree I would spread my arms to give you a haven, If I was your lover I would do whatever I could to build you a heaven. If I was zephyr I would blow myself to touch you all day and night, If I was sun I would shine myself to keep you warm in the light. If I was a rose I would smear my fragrance to make you pleased, If I was life I would do anything to protect you till my breaths ceased!
