If only the stars could speak,
Their whispers would reveal the dreams we seek.
A universe vast, yet we feel so small,
Yearning for answers in their silent sprawl.
If only the winds could tell,
The secrets they carry where oceans swell,
Would they murmur tales of love and loss,
Or the strength we find in bearing the cross?
If only the earth could cry,
Would its tears cleanse the wounds we deny?
A mother to all, yet we take and take,
Her patience dwindling with each mistake.
If only our hearts could dare,
To shed the masks and the burdens they bear,
Perhaps we'd find in the depths of pain,
The courage to love and live again.
If only time could pause its flight,
To hold the dawn or prolong the night,
Would we mend the moments that slipped away,
Or cherish the beauty of today?
If only we could truly see,
The power in hope, in you, in me,
We'd craft a world where dreams run free,
Boundless, eternal, as they’re meant to be.
