A Wish Upon a Wish
I long to wish we could choose where we're born
and not be pierced and constantly torn
I wish that love didn't have so much pain
that it didn't consist of feelings of strain
I wish that it was something sweet and guiding
and not full of fear, hurt and hiding
I wish that love was something true and strong
that actually makes you feel like you belong
I wish that we didn't have to argue
or get angry or disagree or feel so used
I wish that friendship was strong and freeing
and not make you feel a sense of fleeing
I wish people would listen to things you say
And not be mean and nasty like they do day to day
I wish that beauty didn't matter this much
so we could all be accepted and feel that special touch
I wish that we didn't feel so broken
so that we can listen to people when they've spoken
I wish that we weren't all self centered
so we could live a good life and not feel resented
