And what if love were another word
And hate did not exist,
Would we still be obsessed the same
If the world were built, like this?
And what if life never had an end
And pain were a thing unknown,
And the worst thing any man endured
Were the weight, of a heavy stone?
And what if time yield to memory
And nothing need ever change:
Nothing would ever be new again-
But then loss could not derange?
