Have to Be

I'd have to be dead,
to feel alive.

I'd have to be death,
to see your face.

I'd have to be blind,
to hear your sweet voice.

I'd have to be yours,
to feel alone.

I'd have to be sense less,
to feel the pain.

I'd have to be fearless,
to show my shame.

I'd have to be yours,
so you could care.

I'd have to be big
to feel so small.

I'd have to be something,
to be nothing at all.
