Only If Poem by kanav justa

Only If

Rating: 4.7


If I was some gruesome being
And if I was a crocodile
lay my teeth into your throat
When I saw your ugly smile

if I was the king of woods
And if I was lion
Rip out your heart, with my fist
Play with you, ding ding doin

If I had no bone in me,
And if I was born a snake
Consume you, complete in me
No time I would waste to bake

If I was born an evil crow
From high I would take my aim
Shit is something I like
I bet you‘d love my game

If I had a poisonous sting
And if I was born a bee
Bite you at your covert place
You would find it hard to pee

But since I am a human being
Being human is what stops me
So come to me, my sweetest friend
We will have a cup of tea

Dear, forgiveness is the one who unlock our pain to get released, unchain the heart from uncertain feeling, if animal do hurt they did to protect themselves, and as a part of their animal instinct, but in their soul they know how precious life is, even they can work together to be one team. we human have more mind to bring our life more alive beautifully, i love the end stanza that mean we supposed to be a full character of human who know the value of soul and yes mind....if we not use it, we are same to others....only if....we are human we know what we are...leading for the best solution_Soul

The facade we put on in our daily lives because were human and the melting pot of emotions that is just lying beneath the surface! This is so funny, a gem! !

Dear Kanav, Had I had the power to trample, I would prefer to be an elephant. But since I have none, I would just like to ride one! Yes, limitations shapes us along with our capabilities. Nice write.

Ah, perhaps a dangerous friend to have. I expected differently from the title since I have written one called - If Only - Adeline
