I know some orchids in the valley of flowers. <br />I know some tropical flowers with the long names. <br />I know the birds that fly miles to migrate for comfort. <br /> <br />Those orchids did not have to shine in the valley of flowers. <br />Those tropical flowers wouldn't have to bloom during summer. <br />And, the birds do not have to fly the miles and migrate for comfort. <br /> <br />Nights wouldn't have to turn into days, the sun wouldn't have to burn, <br />The summer nights did not have to be cooler, nor the sky bluer… <br />…………………………… if only I had you. <br /> <br />No longer must the orchids shine or the flowers bloom, <br />and honestly, the rivers could stop flowing or the wind could stop blowing. <br /> <br />If only I had you……….…… the world could go do however and whatever; <br />Because we'd finally be together... but the sky doesn't have to fall! <br />The sun doesn't have to burn the night and light the world, <br />nothing has to be off beam and nothing has to feel right. <br />If only I had you…. I would care less, the world could stop spinning!<br /><br />Catastrophe KING<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/955-if-only-i-had-you/
