Wish

I wish you could just hold me
My heart misses you with every beat
Unloved, untouched, undone, and broken
I suffer in silence and defeat

I wish I could just tell you
That everything is really fine
But that would be a hurtful lie
Why can’t you be just mine?

I wish we could just spend
Alone time, just us together
But I am left with only confusion
What happened to forever?

I wish for all the hurt
To magically go away
And let my memories of us
Linger in my soul, forever and a day

I wish fate was not so cruel
I have truly learned my lesson
Just one more kiss on that riverbank
Because that blissfulness felt like Heaven

I wish my wounds would heal
So I can get on without that forever
And if the past is where it’s meant to stay
I wish I had been worth your effort…
