IF

in #poetry7 years ago

If i were a dusty book:
Will i attract you like a magnet?

If i was the worst geographer:
Will you still seek my directions?

If i was a sexist law:
Will you come to me for justice?

If i always wear a sad face:
Will you try to make me happy?

If you see me at the top of a building about to jump to my death:
Will you bother to save me?

If i was living in darkness:
Will you show me the light?

For my shells may seem protective like that of turtles:
But have you tried to see things from my eyes?

Our skins do not reflect what we have been through.
