The stars are something to behold tonightA Poem by jbopI hope they help a brother out.I wish they weren't, always, for you. I wish I was ignorant of your existence. I wish I could feed my phone to an angry pack of
wolves, just so I wouldn't have to look at its blank screen
anymore. I wish time wouldn't stand still for you, and the
world would keep on turning. I wish I never fell in love with you, and I never saw
those.. eyes. I wish I never heard a word that came out of your mouth,
and remember all of them. I wish you weren't so f*****g beautiful, limiting your soul to an physical state is almost
insulting. I wish I could write you, write you right out of my
life, or into it. I wish I could be perfection, but more than that, I wish you weren't. I wish you couldn't conjure every single emotion in
me, in a single breath. I wish I didn't fall asleep every night thinking of
you, and wake up every day remembering you. I wish you didn't make me hungry to be near you, and starving to be loved by you. I wish you didn't constantly haunt my soul when I'm
trying to live, without you. I wish that dark, cowboy twang, and that violin over
that bass didn't tug at my heartstrings, and pull me towards you. I wish I didn’t physically hurt from wanting you, because I do. I wish I didn't think of you each and every time I am faced with a simple letter of your name. I wish one of the most beautiful love songs ever
written didn't remind me of you.. and all the others. I wish I knew what I was doing, here, and what we
are. I wish I knew how to wait for something, that happens so quickly, I doubt it ever did. I wish you weren't so stunning, I could walk away, thankful that you ever came into my life at all. I wish I could give you up when I say I should, and you're like a drug was just a cliché. I wish you weren't absolutely everything there is, and what would have been waiting for me this whole
time. I wish I didn't believe with every cell in my body, that we are meant to be, and this wasn't all a crazy coincidence.
I wish every part of this life wasn't pointing to the
fact that you and me were made for each other. I wish things could go back to the way they used to
be, when you were just you, and I was just me. I wish I couldn’t write this much about you so
easily. I wish for you at every eleven minutes past eleven, on every eyelash, on every wishbone, and tonight, I asked the stars for you. I wish you didn't hold me, with every invisible
force, that keeps me around, without even trying. I wish every inch of you didn't settle some part of
me. I wish it wasn't too late for all of these things. But I don't wish you knew all of this, because I
think you're happy, but in a way, I wish you did. © 2010 jbopReviews
