-- if i danced
if i spun in place
flowing silently
moving endlessly
if i danced for you
would you watch?

if i spoke
if my words dripped slow
falling on idle ears
pooling in the heavy air
if i spoke to you
would you listen?

if i dreamed
if i let my thoughts
wander freely
circling purposefully
if i dreamed of you
would you do the same?

how many of my days
must be followed by
empty, aching nights
before you recognize me
would you grant me life
if i lived for you?
