I wish I had emotions
I wish I could miss someone
These fleeting feelings of need
All there, but impossible to keep

I wish they understood
I wish they could forgive me
These mistakes I have made
All there, but impossible to forget

I wish I couldn’t mimic
I wish I could just be
These faces I project
All there, but impossible to be true

They wish I was normal
They wish I was generic
These “gifts” I was given
All there, but impossible to love

I wish they didn’t laugh
I wish they didn’t cry
Because when I see what they do
It adds to my supply.
