WHAT IF

What if if we fall in love?

We lose away all our senses

I come home after a long day and it gets better by the glimpse of your smile.

Who cares if by any chance I forget life

but I remember that Ice-Cream is your favourite dessert.

What is it to the world if you disappear for a while

when my lips caress your neck.

What if after tumbling round and round between a yes and a no (that nobody gives but ourselves) we take the leap and lean in for a kiss.

What if in shame I present my nude self to you and you clothe me with your touch and love.

What if I ditch my friends to see you smile and get lost in the summer of your eyes.

No problem will arise of adoring you day and night, body and soul. Loving you here, now and tomorrow.

No concern to the world if before leaving we ask ourselves if it’s a better decision to stay here forever.

No one will care when I start to get annoyed by your insistence on been in the same place.

No harm is done if I lie to you to keep you mildly happy.

What if we turn our trust into jealousy and desire nothing but hell to each other.

What if after years we get disgusted at the thought of being apart but cannot bear to be together.

It is nothing to society if you manipulate me with your tears while I cry to you with my indifference.

No good or bad will be done if you stop singing to me and I quit writing to you.

Not a soul will care if after a year our love turns into hatred and the sparkle in your eyes ceases to be the reason of my existence.

Earth will keep turning even if we violently exhume our most terrible fears by hurting each other.

My blood in your hands, your blood in mine. Teeth, words, knuckles, guns.

Life will continue to grow when you’ve destroyed my soul and I’ve diminished your personality.

It will happen without us. Life is perfection with your heart and mine in a same place or apart.

So, if no tragedy but the one we desire persists, why should stop our lives?

Why should you keep your voice from my head?

Why should I keep my touch from your hand?

The world won’t cease to exist.

If our love begins or never desists.

So this I must insist:

Let our love be and our hearts fall so hard

that the world would wish it could stop.
