If I were God

By Echoes of Orpheus





You would be my goddess
and I wouldn't have to change a thing.

Even as God,
all powerful,
the world under my finger,
I would have nothing
without you.

I could have
any woman in the world
or I could
craft one for myself
but it would never be the same.

God or not,
I am in love.

I would be there,
in your arms,
yours.
I would make sure you never
ever have to cry again.

You would never be cold,
never be lonely,
not feel incomplete.

I would still need,
I would want to feel weak,
bent to your cause.

I would need your arms
to be around me...

In your arms
even the all powerful,
with infinite strength,
would become like a child
clinging to you,
cuddling with you,
only feeling safe
inside your arms

Nothing is wrong,
not with you here holding me.









If I were God

I would be on my knees for you.
