If Only You Could

If only you could fathom my care in those tears,

If only you could measure the warmth in my indifference,

If only you could judge me without any fears;

And construe my moves with no choice or preference

If only you could realize the reason for my existence,

If only you could glean the truth from my lies,

If only you could believe with subtle pertinence;

The passion in my heart and the love in these eyes

If only you could feel the pulse of my survival,

If only you could decipher my resilience amidst those upheavals,

If only you could absorb the true elixir of life;

Time would freeze; the world would end this strife.
