If you would have let me, I would have given my soul to you
I would have taught you how to keep the light between us bright, so bright it would have lightly lightened the slight dark moments of your life
If you’d have let me, I would have eaten all of my breakfasts with you
I would have taught you how to cook with love
If you’d have let me, I would have shared all of my nights with you
I would have taught you how, just by lying still in the dark, you can feel all the warmth of your feelings
If you’d have let me, I would have proposed to you during one breakfast
I would have taught you that consistence in doing crosswords in the mornings, can get you married, if you solve the clue correctly
If you’d have let me, I would have helped with your collection of post it notes
I would have taught you what care means, one post-it at the time, in small notes you’d find in your wallet, your lunch, your back pocket
If you’d have let me, I would have stayed there with you, until the end
I would have let myself taught all the other things you had to give, all the ways in which you could love, that were not known to me.
