What would happen?

Would a gem sparkle its sparkle, would the jewel adorn the crown?
Would gold gleam gold, If I didn't have your hand to hold?

Would flowers spray scent? Would leaves reflect green?
If it weren't for you, darling, stars, would there have been?

if you didn't squint your eyes at him , would the sun even remember to scorch?
If not in the fear that you would lose your way, why would the moon serve as torch?

Would a gem sparkle its sparkle, oh would gold gleam gold, love?

Oh each one of my senses, they all scream your name.
Without you beside me, darling, would anything be the same?

What role would sight serve? What could be the reason?
If not to feast on your form, beautiful, what purpose has vision?

What good is hearing, darling, If you weren't around?
What will be a pitch, a tone? Would the brain even process sound?

Why would there be speech? Why would the lips produce noise?
If not to delight in calling out to you, love, why will be a voice?

What is everything olfactory, how could a fragrance cast a spell?
Oh to catch just a whiff, darling, did He create the sense of smell?

Just to hold, to kiss, to caress your all, precious, did I come into being?
If the fingers didn't belong to you, darling, would a touch mean a thing?

Would my face still flush? Would laughter ring true?
Would success make my heart swell, if the win didn't include you?

Would a loss devastate? Will anything shatter?
If I couldn't seek solace in you, sweet, would a tear even matter?

Will desire throb? Will pleasure please?
Will pain sear? Will patience tease?

So would a gem sparkle its sparkle, tell me, would gold gleam gold?

Would peace prevail, would the world still spin?
If you ceased to exist, darling, oh would good still win?

If you vanished without trace, oh what would happen then?
If you disappeared now, darling, would words still spill out of my pen?
