If I were to need you

If I were to need you
I would take you as you are
I would pull you from the night sky
You would be my star

If I were to need you
I wouldn’t need another rose
For the world would see
That the most perfect rose
Was walking beside me

If I were to need you
I wouldn’t need the sun
To light my world

If I were to need you
I wouldn’t need any water
You would quench my thirst

If I were to need you
As badly as I want you
I would hold you in my arms
Until you needed me
As much as I need you

Quite the powerful piece, Alan!
And they say guys have lost their passion!
Bah!  Keep it alive, my friend.
A great poem!

Juliet.......I am lthe lucky one.

Trew.....thank you I will do my best. It is far easier to write a sad poem than one like this.

How sweet and romantic. Let us hope that someone would need us as immediately as we might need them.   Great challenge answer.
