If I ever
just get up
and walk-on, out through the door
Would you please
Come running after me
Yelling, that you do want more?
Compelling words whispered
How they mesmerize all my doubts
Mending my bones with
Your tender touching, between the shouts
If I ever
Turn my back
With my head down, so not to see
Could you willingly
Put arms around me
As an anchor, to safely hold me?
Subtle, smoothly-spoken comfort
Ease the pounding beats in my chest
Conquer the stubborn, silent, panic mode
Fill me in the now, till there's nothing left
If I ever
Try hiding my face
To cover up the mighty flood of tears
Tread over to me
Hands cupping my face
With teasing lips, smother those upsheaveled years
If ever I should
Could you
Would you
Ever
Be the one who's there?
