If

The title of this poem is inspired by Rudyard Kipling’s beautiful poem ‘If’.

If you can see through my eyes,

If you can say that which I did not speak,

If you can understand before I can explain,

Remember me for faster sign in

If you can reach out before I lean on,

If you can hear my silence,

If you can feel the pain roll down my cheeks,

If you know the reason behind my smile,

If you can read my mind and touch my heart,

If you can feel my presence even though I may not be there,

If you can give as much and take all the more,

Then you’re the man every woman is looking for!
