Tangible temperaments

If temperaments were tangible what would yours feel like

If natures were worn outside like clothes what would you dislike

If intentions had  a transparent hue how would you hide them

If expressions spilled your secrets who would you blame

 

If truth stumbled upon your closet and discovered a skeleton

If lies decided to call it a day and deserted your habit for fun

If belief changed its mind and could no longer be displayed

If your mirror lost its cool and snapped would your reaction be relayed

 

If the skies gave up on you and removed clouds and winds and rains

If the world suddenly became empty of all anxieties and pains

If the rainbows merged at once and white was now default

If the dreams lost their sheen and colors were locked up in the vault

 

If gravity grew tired and decided not to hold you down

If you smile turned bashful and replaced itself with a frown

If your heart became sparing and turned down offers of affection

If affection felt unwanted and went away would it be defection

 

If your eyes miss the tears and feel homesick

If your hand does not lift in prayer what will do the trick

If happiness says I am very much here yet you don’t look within

If peace of mind feels adrift and gets lost in the ensuing din
