If I Had You
By: Noah Eaton
3/29/01

Years pass me by, staring at your beauty in my dreams
You are everything to me, and how I want everything fervently
Wanting so badly to sit beside you for once, and see you smile
Even if it was just for a little while

If I had you, I promise that I would never let you go, honey
I would recite my poetry to you, and hope you want to forever be with me
I would sit under the stars with you, and I could look into your crystalline eyes
And I could catch that spark of affection, feel your lovely light

It never felt too bad running on empty
Until I first dreamed of you, my darling
It is so aggravating feeling your love but being hoodwinked by fantasy
You’re a beautiful angel I still can’t reach, praying God will help you find me

If I had you, I would hold you close, listening to every word you say
I would carry you in my arms, tuck you into bed, and my love for you would never fade away
I would whisper those three words to you before you fall asleep
I would kiss you on your forehead and softly caress your silkened cheeks

Oh love, how I’ve dreamed of you for so so long
Falling in complete happiness with you, and then you are gone
I hope the time is near, when I can feel your love so true
Can you hear me say, “I love you!”

If I had you, I would hold your hands and we would dance together
We’d never have to cry or long for each other again, never ever
And whenever you would feel sick, sad, or dilapidated
I will always be there beside you, comforting you, sharing a mutual understanding

If I had you, I would hold you in my arms, kissing each other
Feeling your warm body over mine, making love to each other as true happy lovers
And every night after, I would keep you warm as I cover you with my sheets
While your warm body keeps me warm at night, your soft hands over me

If I had you…I would love you

Beautiful words of love! Your expression deeply felt, a longing so muchly anticipated! I pray you feel her touch, her skin against yours, for then your words will truly be felt in your heart. HUGS

This really seems like you could put it to music...*smiles*...I've read a couple of your poems now and they all have that thus far.  Was that your intent?  If not, please don't be offended.  I LOVE music and I do mean it as a compliment, really.

P.S.  Crystalline is a GREAT word, isn't it?? hehehe

Amazing!  Absolutely amazing!  It brought tears to my eyes, I so know what you are (were) going through. Its so hard when you love someone SOOOO much but they don't know it/return it and its too scary to express it to that special someone.  i wish you all the luck in the world, and that one day you get to read this poemto your love.
