I Wish

It started when you touched my hair

And told me it looked better

It finished when you left

And left me there to whither

I remember the day

Then wonder why?

Soon the warmth will be gone

And I'd be left to cry

I wish I were an author

So I could write our story

I'd make you love me

and never leave me

I wish I were a dancer

So we could dance among the stars

And our story would be told

For a million more years

I wish I were prince charming

So you'd fall in love with me

We'd walk into the sunset

And have our happily ever after

I wish I was her

So you'd look at me

With such love and admiration

And tell me it's okay

But I'm not

So you won't

And we can't

I gaze outside my window

And wish upon a star

And open up my heart

I let my dreams take me far

A tear rolls down my face

As I think of you

Then I think of me

And what we'll never be
