If Only

If I were thinner 

Would you want me then?

If my frame were in the fashion of a Greek sculpture

Would you want me then?

If my teeth gleamed like a star in the night sky

Would you want me then?

If I were perpetually dressed as well as royalty

Would you want me then?

If wealth poured from my pockets

Would you want me then?

If my hair were flawless at all times

Would you want me then?

If my complexion was as clear as a porcelain doll’s

Would you want me then?

If I had a doctorate

Would I be intelligent enough for you then?

If my car costed more than a governor’s salary

Would you want to ride with me then?

If I were more humorous

Would you laugh with me then?

How can I make you desire me?

 Will I ever be good enough?

If only… if only I were more
