If it was for me..

If it was for me I would become what the lotus leaf is for the dew for you. I would nestle you in my palm like the small newborn bird. I would become the barbed wire that keeps the evil out of your world. I wish the world was reborn for you again. I would turn the time back to the beginning of time. The mirage in the middle of the desert would be me for you, if it was for me. The mirage would win its identity back from the yellow sand then.

If it was for me, I would become the first rain drop to announce the coming of the season for you. I would become the last leaf that autumn sheds. I would be the last leaf that spring bears in your world.

The wave that forms those circles around your feet would be me. The footprints you leave there would be me. The footprints that the wave washes away as you walk your way back home would be me, if it was for me
