Another old poem

in #poets4 years ago

If only you knew

If only you knew
what I knew today
You would not be afraid

If only you had seen
the miracles I have witnessed
You would have faith

If only you had felt
What I felt so long
You would appreciate

If only you had lacked
What I lacked through life
You would love
You would despise hate

But I said it
For me there are no more " if 's "
I now live merely for the "when"
Because you see
now I've got faith
And I know I can

No
There are no solutions
Nor prophecies written in me

But one day
you just watch and see
when this world is done with me
My words will be my legacy
