if I were an author
I would write a book for you
if I were a director
I would make a movie of you
if I were an actor
I would give up acting for you
if I were a photographer
I would cry, because I could never
capture your beauty

if I were your brother
I would watch out for you
if I were your father
I would watch over you
if I were your friend
I would hope that you
would feel comfortable
asking me for anything

If I were a poet
I would write a poem of you
if I were a musician
I would play beautifully for you
if I could sing
I would sing of your beauty
