"If I were Love"
by Judy Sims
If I were love
where would I be?
The sky above
or out to sea?
If I were love
what form to take?
The eye of the dove
or calm of lake?
If I were love
where would I go?
Hide in a book
or fall with snow?
If I were love
how tall would I be?
As high as the sun,
tiny as a bee?
If I were love
and determined to be
the only mode
to set man free,
What would I think?
What would I do?
Let man sink
or tell the truth?
The power of love
can do all things.
It can be the rose
or thorn to sting.
If I were love
would you know
what I am for
and how I show?
If I were love
and saw you there
I wouldn't know you
and you would not care.
For I can tell
you true this day,
Love knew you well
you threw it away.
You seem to have
this strange idea
Love can be had
like a can of beer.
You drink it down
give a big belch,
Spit it out,
deal a welsh.
You seem to think
no one cares.
You let them sink
wail and tear.....
Tear at their hearts,
beat on their brains.
Rip a life apart
pour it down drains.
Mean nothing to you
plow through a life.
Do what you'll do
great turn of the knife.
It may never be
you'll ever find out.
You may never see
your turn about.
But here I will
give you a hint.
Where you can spill
your life all spent.
What love really is
how you missed.
Like a scent on wind
returns your spit.
Covered with sin
alone and afraid
You could not win
for it was said,
If I were love
creation I made.
Only one God
is Love, He said.
