~ If I could ...

... If I could

run a mile in your shoes ...
I'm sure I'd need
new sneakers after that ~

... If I could

run my own mile...
without wearing down
my sneakers ...
I'm sure I could
run yours for you
too ~

... or show you a way ...

~foresight ~

If I had a crystal ball
I could
if I had a crystal ball
I would ?
perhaps ... take a peek
between the veils,
that hold the year
foresee the trails

the stakes I'd seek ...
the games,
the loss
all adventures beyond
the dark
the gloss ~

to cheat the goals ?
and fake the way
a shortcut to happiness
in every way ?
It would not work
these things foreseen ~
for I might lose courage
in having pre-been ...

valour would fade
intentions secured ~
through lucid spectrums
limpid vistas allured

I should get off
and enter , detached ,
new horizons and gateways
beginnings unmatched ~
