If...

If I had to pause,

Will you let me stop?

If I had to break,

Will you let me fall apart?

If I wanted to be lost,

Could I never be found?

Truth be told,

A million questions abound.

If I was not strong, Would you let me be weak? Would you pick up its pieces, And hear my heart meek?

A journey without destination, Would you let me wander?

And let me take my time, All those moments squander?

Holding back the river,

Is why the dam ruptures,

The tears that are unfallen,

Is why the soul suffers.
