To change this world I


To change this world I would grab your hand

I would squeeze it tight to let you know I am here.

I would waltz into heaven and demand a longer summer, and you would smile that smile.

To change this world I would pat your back

I would say "You're amazing!" and you would smile that smile you smiled when you were five and didn't know the meaning of the word anxiety

I would take you to a cabin in Gatlinburg Tennesee and summon a bonfire the size of a volcano. The light would dance on your face and you would smile.

To change this world I would make you smile.

Because making you smile, would change this world.
