If I were poetry

If I were poetry...
.
.
.
I'd be written...
Upon the lines...
Of your hand...
.
So you could feel..
Just where I'm coming from...
And without question...
You'd understand...
.
My content...
.
Knowing what i meant...
Before each word...
Even formed a sentence...
.
If I were poetry
I'd be a sonnet...
Seeking solace...
Through literal repentance...
.
.
I'd apologize...
If I were poetry...
.
Poetically speaking...
Within a verse...
.
I'd .write. my wrongs...
To the rhythm of your song...
Combating my hate...
And harbored hurt...
.
And for what it's worth...
.
If I were poetry...
.
I'd let you read me...
Line for line...
.
No metaphorical bloating...
Or metaphysical gloating...
You could probe my thoughts...
And quote my mind...
.
Lines don't just rhyme...
They have deeper meaning...
.
If I were poetry...
Pens would be bleeding...
.
My pain...
.
Happiness...
.
And contentment...
.
.
.
If I were poetry...
I'd show my commitment...
.
To being your friend...
.
Never letting you write alone...
.
If I were poetry...
I'd give your ink a home...
.
But I'm just me...
Poetry is what i recite...
.
But If I were poetry...
I'd give my life...
.
.
.
To your trees...
