If I told you that I loved you for who you are
would you run and hide?
to the mountains of fantastical reflection
covered in a vision not mine

If I told you that I loved you would you laugh or cry?
giddy with rose tinted countenance
as tenderness falls from my eyes

If I told you that I loved you with cut strings and shredded ego
would you still smile?
weaving threads of tomorrow with moonlight
while my heart grins with soft sighs

If I told you that I loved you for your sensibility
would you believe me?
while kissing fairies from the back of a unicorn
spinning senseless in delights and entreats

If I told you that I love you without expectation
would you hold my hand?
with arms thrown wide falling fast from the sun
fingers fitted and laced as writ in timeless sands

If I told you that I loved you simply because you are you
could you deal with that?
entwining the spider webs in the mirror with fireflies
as morning doves blush at my gasp

If I told you that you touch me deep within my jagged heart
could you accept it?
with fingers infused with the amber of nirvana
tempered with the ache of a life similarly fit

If I told you that I love you would you still be my friend?
skipping endless in daydreams
riding boundless on moonbeams

to the sun

through the stars

to the sea

through the sky

and back again

yes






but would

you




believe

me?
