POEM STARTER
Inspired by Daniel HJ
If Only...
Write a poem which starts or ends with "If only".
If only … no more
My days are almost endless… as if they have blended into one excrutiatingly long minute.
I have patiently awaited the flashing moment, where I can see a sliver of change.
Living with the hope of catching my way out.
If only…
If only I had the tools.
If only I had the strength.
If only…
My journey has been everything but easy… as if the great divine has purposefuly made it impossible.
Haven’t I proven myself yet? Have I not defeated what was meant to destroy me?
What more can there be?
If only…
If only I had the tools.
If only I had the strength.
If only…
I’m here just floating along the waves…waiting for land to find me.
I have exhausted all that I am to keep myslef afloat.
I’m more than ready to drown.
If only…
If only I had the will.
If only i could end this.
If only…
If only I could sleep…
If only that sleep could be eternal.
