I could be a pole with a swing
you could go around as fast as you want,
and the wings
on which you could fly with no tether.

I could be the ship
you would sail to exotic destinies,
and the anchor
to hold you steady during a storm.

I could be the ear
that listens to your most regrettable deed,
and the soul that loves you anyway.

I could be the sun
to shed warmth on your burnt sienna cheeks,
and the breeze
that cools beads of sweat on your forehead.

I could be the earth
on which you lie to rest your weary body,
and the air
you breathe to rejuvenate your heart.

I could be the sword
to fight your battles,
and the olive branch
that offers peace.

I could be the lover
that enraptures your lust,
and the mate
to console your sorrows.

I could be the stars
on which you dream,
and the tablet
where you carve your legacy.

Or I could be
...imagined impossible.
