only if..

It's my Third Poem!

The smiles would still have been on my lips

only if I had worked more hard on life's Thorny Streets

ONLY IF...

I would have the same positivity

The same thrill on doing bad activity

My heart still would have

the same ol' dreaming capacity

but alas...ONLY IF...

I still would have been a free soul

the one who stood in confidence above all

but now my life is like a food so stale

and my face has lost its smile

just to look a face so pale

Things would have been surely different today

ONLY IF...

My eyes still would have been charming wide

My lips still would have lots of promises to keep

There would be in my routine

a lovely sound sleep

but alas...ONLY IF...
