May 2012
I wish that every tear I cried led to the ocean
and that every beat of my heart was the rhythm of a song
I wish that I got everything that I supposed to do done
and that the smile on my face wasn't so often fake
I wish I didn't have to wait for the end of the week to see her
and feel her arms around me and her hand in mine
I wish that the world would spin faster than a Tilt-A-Whorl
and I let my head fall back as I let the wooziness overtake me
I wish that the colours on my paper would turn out the way I wanted when I painted a smile
and not a frown
I wish that I didn't have so many 'I wish's' spinning around in my head
and that some of them would just come true.
