If Only

If Only

A Poem by David O Whalen (O Haolin in Celtic)
"

Saddest two words of all!

"
If only sleep was 
As simple as closing one’s eyes

And dreams could be chosen
And then realized

If only…If only…
Words that mean only

That things have gone badly
Askew and sadly…

…taken the twinkle and the sleep
…From your eyes…
