I Wish

 

 

 

 

 

 

I wish..
I wish I didn't care but I do..
I wish I wasn't hurting but I am..
I wish my heart would lead me to something different but it won't..
I wish I could run but my feet won't move..
I wish I knew what I wanted but I don't....

 

I wish I didn't think about him so much but I do..
I wish I wasn't falling but I am..
I wish my feelings could just let go but they won't..
I wish I could fly away but my arms won't move..
I wish I knew where my heart is but I don't..

 

I wish I didn't run into a dead end but I do..
I wish I wasn't lost but I am..
I wish my path would guild me but it won't..
I wish I could see but my eyes won't move..
I wish I knew my future but I don't..

 

I wish I didn't quit but I do..
I wish I wasn't broke but I am..
I wish money would grow on trees but it won't..
I wish it could be easy but it's not..
I wish I knew what to do but I don't..

 

I wish I didn't have to say goodbye but I do..
I wish I wasn't leaving but I am..
I wish my soul would stay within it but it won't..
I wish we could stay but our bodies have to move..
I wish I knew how but I don't..

 

I wish I didn't get involved but I do..
I wish I wasn't failing but I am..
I wish my head would say but it won't..
I wish I could set you free but I can't..
I wish I knew how to help but I don't..

 

I wish I didn't live but I do..
I wish I wasn't thinking but I am..
I wish my mind would forget but it won't..
I wish I could witness the moment but it won't move..
I wish I knew how my life could change but it don't..

 

All the wishing and none of the happening..
One day I will capture what I have been dying for..
I won't break and I won't die..
We won't say goodbye because its better that way..
I strive for protection and I am scared..
My future awaits for my arrival..
Leaving made me realize how much I miss it..
I wish I knew what I wanted but I don't…

Excellent job! I really love the way you develope your emetions and feelings as it goes on, and you remained consistant in your arrangement. It painted an exquisit picture for me, and every line added to the vision. I can find nothing critique wise to offer you. Well Done!
