I wish you were still here

I wish you were still here. I wish you still sang your heart out And I wish you still smiled when you heard a song you liked I miss when you'd dangle your feet off the edges of cliffs Because you wanted to feel how it felt pre-free fall I miss when you'd dance alone in your room And dance in that same manner with an audience. I miss your beautiful, kind soul And I wish you still danced in the rain. I wish I wasn't crying while I was writing this And I wish you weren't in so much pain. I wish you were still sweet like sugar And I wish your eyes still shimmered like stars. I wish your hands didn't shake like leaves I wish your chest didn't feel so heavy And I wish the same for your eyes I wish you were still here to brighten the bad days And I wish you weren't a victim of time.
