IF - a relationship poem

If you love her, and want to affect her, echo her behavior.

Become a mirror she can use to see herself.

If she loves you, she’ll begin to question.

If she begins to question, she’ll start to see.

If she starts to see, she might understand.

If she can understand, she could believe.

If she believes, only for a moment, she’ll see your soul.

If she sees your soul, even for a moment,

She’ll be angry because it wasn’t what she expected.

If you haven’t lived up to her expectations, you may see yourself

In a mirror made of her.
