If you were to have one wish, what would you wish for?

Would it be to walk forevermore along the beach shore?
Or to be the most skilled one on the dance floor?
Or to go back in that time when you attempted to rob a liquor store?
Would it be to be covered in diamonds and gold galore?
What about rocking your way through the stage its door?
Or not to be filled with the burden of your best friend's death anymore?

It is the deepest of desires and wishes of others that I simply adore:
The way their eyes shine and glimmer as if they are made of precious ore
It is the fact that I can read one's mind and thoughts so easily, even before
It would put my closest friends and family into a snore

I could tell their lies and false words, although against it they swore
Is it really such a burden to find what's behind the heart and its core?
"I don't understand your reasonings, it must be something you adore."
My grandmother would tell me before shutting the front door
"I hope one day your faith in humanity would restore,
For one your young age should not have a heart that is this wore."
But even I could tell her words were filled with deplore

The stress and anxiety caused me to bite the inside of my cheeks would become sore
And the kids at school would push me around and call me a *****
As if it that awful word had no meaning, then school suddenly became a chore,
Almost clawing my way, refusing to go as I was pulled out the front door
"She was never like this, not even once before. She was such as sweet child, around when she was four...
But even when she was small she wished to be washed up dead ashore."

Sometimes life works in a really weird way
It introduces you to someone you'll love with all your heart
You want to love the life you imagine you could have with them but then it's all taken away from you because of certain circumstances
You're sad with them and you're even worse off without them
But the worst part of all of the pain is that you don't ever want to imagine a day or moment where you can't call them yours.
That feeling.

The one you get when you see it through the ripped paper
The excitement, the anticipation, the passion.
When it's there right infront of you gleaming like light is absent from everything else you open it taking your time to peel apart the layers of complex packaging.
There it lies, it's what you've wanted for what seems like forever and now it's yours.
You learn everything about It. How it looks how it feels how it works. Everything inside and out. You never want to let it go. You don't let it go. If it breaks you fix it. It grows with you it becomes a part of you.
Your new toy.

I cannot protect you from life's tough lessons
But I can support you by lending my hand

You won't be alone while I am by your side
For I am right there

I will take the hits like a tank
I'll provide healing with my love
I'll forever be by your side
Even when I'm ill

I cannot promise you that I will to take all the effects of heartaches, death, and pain
For those are what hurt the soul the most and make you never forget

But I can promise you that you are never alone
I will shine my light in your path so that you can find your way again

You are so beautiful, but lost in hurt and pain
You would like to be alone at times but you don't have to be while I'm there

Don't forget who you are, because you are so dear to me
Don't darken your soul because of what he failed to make you see
The amazing person that you are
Beautiful, and capable of so much

You don't need him to complete you
You don't need him to be happy  
For you are your own warm hearted soul so genuine and free
For my best friend who is going through a tough break up. I love you, and I know you will make it through this.

Hey there little girl won't you come inside?
We're the permanent civilians of heartbreak, hate, revenge, and everything a person doesn't want to be.
We'll pretend to give you support but never trust us since we can ruin your life faster than you can taste the poison you've poured in your glass so you can feel something again.
But it's okay because after we ******* up, we'll permanently keep you with us.
Hey there little girl come inside and don't be afraid.

These promises you say ring through my ear every time I think of how insecure I am whenever they're not kept.
Forgetting everything that led me to believe how feelings are a method of self destruct.
Believing that I am ready to fake more feelings, like loving myself, but even worse, loving you more than I love myself.
It is not something I'm saying to make you hate me, I've pushed many like you away.
But there's something about your words that seem so pure and genuine which lead me to wishing I deserved the attention you're offering.
