If I were to leave today,
Would you in sadness, cry?
If I, in my darkest hour reached for you,
Would you recoil in terror?
Or would you hold me by your side?
If I were to reach out,
and embrace the night,
Would you insist that I not give up,
But persevere
and seek the light?
How would I know?
If I were indeed,
free to go,
For
If I be bound by the chains of your mind.
And the love of your soul,
How then,
how could I
say goodbye?
For I am
Forever still
In love,
With thee.
And even
If darkness calls
I will not answer
Its ring.
For you and I,
Will always
Be.
