if i could.

if i could solve the world's problems

if i could hush away harsh language from my brother's ears

if i could chase away stupid boys from my sister's presence

if i could spin hurricanes away from my parents' island paradise

if i could

if i could solve everything for you

if i could solve everything for me

if i could make you see the not-s0-distant future

if i could show you today isn't everything

if i could show you that you have so much to live for, breathe in, and inspire

if i could show how the world is waiting on the opposite side of your window frame

if i could pretend that all of your problems didn't make me want to solve every single one of them

if i could

if i could make you love me

if i could fix your brain

if i could fix myself

if i could be worth your time

if i could be enough

somehow, i never am for everybody that i touch
