​
Never
​
If I never write another word,
Be this the one that defines me
If I never sing another song,
Be this the one that moves me
If I never see another dawn,
Be this the one that awakens me
If I never dream another dream,
Be this the one that inspires me
If I never learn from another child,
Be this the one that humbles me
If I never read another book,
Be this the one that changes me
If I never climb another mountain,
Be this the one that exhausts me
If I never fight another day,
Be this the one that dignifies me
If I never rage another injustice,
Be this the one that abides me
If I never friend another enemy
Be this the one that honours me
If I never tell another truth,
Be this the one that forgives me
If I never adventure another star,
Be this the one that captivates me
If I never feel another emotion,
Be this the one that pains me
If I never slay another demon,
Be this the one that terrifies me
If I never think another thought,
Be this the one that destroys me
If I never chase another rainbow,
Be this the one that colours me
If I never paint another canvas
Be this the one that remembers me
If I never dance in another storm,
Be this the one that lightening strikes me
If I never connect to another soul,
Be this the one that beautifies me
If I never touch another hand,
Be this the one that reminds me
And if I never feel another love,
Be this the one that outlives me
