I wish I was able to wave a magic wand Take all our broken pieces Put us together perfectly Without cracks, chips, and creases.
I wish I was an ancient shaman Who could heal with just one touch Caress each and every wound and fracture Soothe pain so doesn't hurt as much.
I wish my muscles could bear both our burdens Not falter under their weight Peace the impossible destination When we carry baggage we hate.
I wish we could rise high above Small opinions of close-minded folk It seems perfect until someone makes a comment Reminding me our relationship is a joke.
I wish the day would come where we walk hand-in-hand Without obstacles in our way Across this beautiful atlas Not stopping until far away.
I wish for a paintbrush Large enough to paint the sky blue Tried different shades of navy and indigo I never could find the right hue.
I wish I had the ability to sculpt A duplicate of your heart out of clay Savor these wild emotions Relive your love day after day.
I wish I was cold enough to make time freeze But precious minutes and hours won't bend When will I discover that love never lasts? Time destroys all things in the end.
