If I made it from
the pale glow of the moon,
would you wear it to
light my path
through the gloom?
If I wove it from
yellow and white rays of the sun,
would you wear it
to give light to
this one?
If I created it
of the red and yellow of flame,
would you wear it to
set my world ablaze?
If it were hewn
of the grey rock and stone,
would you don it
and be
my home?
Were I to
make it of earth and the ground,
would you try it on
just to see if
we’d be sound?
If I made it
from greens, and browns of the leaves,
would you give in
and be
my canopy.
If I stitched it from
emerald and blues of the sea,
would you wear it
when you capsize
and drown me?
Were I to make it
from invisible, threads of the wind,
would you accept it
just to blow me away,
again.
If it were of
gold, silver, and other precious metal,
would your wear it just
to make
my heart unsettle.
If I weave it from
crimson strands of my heart,
would you discard it,
knowing,
it would tear us apart?
