I wish I was simple
My words just single syllables
My ideas basic cable
My thoughts ripples in a puddle,
I wish there was no complexity
To my desires
No high stakes to my risks,
No fine print to my joy,
I wish I had known you
Under easy circumstances
Convenient even,
I wish that there was
No long story to tell,
No book with index
To this fairy tale,
I wished that it would
Have truly been simple
Like I said it could and should be,
I wished I hadn't seen
The galaxies in your eyes,
Hadn't heard the symphonies
From your lips,
Hadn't felt the depths
Of want as I held your hand,
I wished I didn't wonder
I wished I didn't care,
But definitely certainly truly
I didn't wish I hadn't met you
And gotten so close to the sun,
I just wish I could stop wishing...
