Ghazal

If the sun refused to shine,
I'd still be loving you.

If the rivers run dry,
I'd still be loving you.

If the mountains crumble down to pebbles,
I'd still be loving you.

If the oceans turn shallow and overturn their mysteries,
I'd still be loving you.

If 'ifs' mark my way beyond,
I'd still be loving you.

If this verse be too short or lame,
I'd still be loving you.

If, I someday, run out of words for you,
You'd still be loving me and I'd still be living you.

P.S. : I'd so have liked the first and third couplets to be my creation. Led Zeppelin's 'Thank You' owes a thanks and is the genesis behind this ghazal.
