Potion (2)

if i had a notion

of what was going down

before it had happened

it would have never began



if i had a potion

to turn pain to dust

i wouldnt waste a drop

i'd hand it over to you



i'd even switch positions

please don't drink that bottle

because feelings seem too hard to swallow

you want to switch to liquids



i didn't hear the screams call out,

before the accident began

but if i did i would have been there standing in your place

as you were knocked off your feet and safe

a moment earlier then this

where i hear you crying in pain



if time froze a second

i'd do something better

i woudnt fix the clock

i'd repair broken looks



broken looks meant for your face..



if i had an ocean

or a pool to swim in

i wouldnt waste a drop

i'd hand it over to you



just to wash away the stains

you're deeper then that puddle

and though feelings seem to hard to swallow

please don't switch to liquids



i didn't hear the screams call out,

before the accident began

but if i did i would have been there standing in your place

as you were moved aside and safe

a moment earlier then this

where i hear you crying in pain



if i had an ocean

or i had a potion

or an extra moment

to have stopped this for you



but i'll do what i can now

we'll make the crying stop

If

A big word if. Magic potions for a time change - if. Pain and empathy, An if only write, do what can be done to ease what comes after. That and if are all we have. Wishing them wellness.
