ONLY IF

in poetry •  7 years ago 

On the off chance that I thought for only one minute this would be my final gasp,

I'd disclose to you I'll adore you perpetually, even past death.

On the off chance that I thought for only one minute that your face would be the last I'd see,

I'd take a million pictures and spare them only for me.

In the event that I thought for only one minute that your voice would be the last I'd hear,

I'd listen mindfully and guarantee not to shed a tear.

On the off chance that I thought for only one minute that your touch would be the last I'd feel,

I'd grasp you and realize this has all been genuine.

On the off chance that I thought for only one minute that my heart would pulsate its last beat,

I'd thank the Ruler for enabling us to meet.
