I just wish

I just wish

A Poem by SarahCortland
"

Someone I love is in the hospital needing a heart transplant and I had a dre am about him. He is 17 and I am so scared for him but at times I wish he'd stop caring for me because it hurts.

"
I wish you could see yourself. I wish you could see what's at hand. Your becoming like everyone else. I just wish you would understand. I wish you would grow up. I wish you would see. Your not only hurting yourself . I just wish you'd stop hurting me. I wish you could hold me. I wish that everything was okay. You know all the right words. I just wish you had something to say. I wish you could have known. I wish you would have said goodbye. You never knew it be the last. I just wish you hadn't had to die.

Not sure how this relates to the issue you've got in your description.2nd to last line "You never knew it be the last." I think you meant It'd. And it'd be interesting to see you break out of the couplet rhyme scheme.

Aw, this is a sad piece that gives a gloomy tingle to my heart. However, I like the tingle, so it's fine.

Maybe the guy was trying not to focus on death. You shouldn't deny death, but you shouldn't depress over it eiether.

Also, the last line could've been rewritten. Hadn't had would be easily read like this: didn't or didn't have or something like that.

Anyways, I really like it. You have a style that's most distinct or unique is the better word.

Keep using that good old talent.
