If I
If I knew what I never have known
I would go where I have never been
If I saw what I haven't yet seen
I would finish what I couldn't begin.
If I could taste what I've never eaten
I would smell what my nose never knew
If I could touch all the clouds in the heavens
I would sip and would sup on the blue.
If I felt all the feelings that fill me
I would run with the feet that can't stand
If I slapped everyone that needs slapping
I would slap all the faces of man.
If I loved all the people that loved me
If I kissed all the lips that kissed me
I would dance in the dark with myself and my heart
And I'd diss all the ones who dissed me.
If I counted to ten in the morning
I would add all the numbers so bright
If I poured the sun out on the sadness
I would cover the ground with the night.
If I had all the money I don't have
I would spend all my money on you
If I sang every love song not written
I would know if those love songs were true.
If I flung my poor heart in the ocean
It would swim in the deep with the fishes
If a poet could be, I would write poetry
But I'm not but that's what I wishes.
