IF
If you don’t see my call after a while
If I fail to reply to your text and let it pile
Know that I’m holding on for my dear life
Flow with the storm howling slicing like a knife
If you see me waving at you in your dream
If I say words that echo like a meme
Be rest assured I’m carrying my cross
Free of anything but what I hold across
Through the whispering of the night
Turn to whimpering of the might
Though the words are lost to the breeze
Tune to melody of the wind that freeze
