If only

Nechet 2000 (nagaland)



I would long to stay forever.
I would walk the hear and cold;
I would run to you whenever,
I would hold till I am old.
But if only you could understand.

I would wait for years
I would keep the promises.
I would hold my tears,
I would Cherish your kisses.
But if only you could know.

I would spend lonely nights.
I would endure my pains;
I would not give up my fights.
I would not cry even if it rains.
But if only you could feel.
If only you could!
