How I Wish

How i wish Satan had not defied God' rule
And Eve was not tricked by the snake

How i wish the sun was cool
And the world was free from earthquakes

How i wish people were sentimental 
And they respected their feelings

How i wish the world wasn't continental
And free from the racial killings

How i wish there weren't many religions
And we stuck to same believes

How i wish love wasn't so complicated
And we stayed loyal to that one person we dated

How i wish people weren't so judgemental

How i wish there were no distinctive directions
And we would go anywhere our wishes took us

How i wish there were no differences between us
And we all settled for the same things

How i wish pain and suffer were locked in a cage
As our hearts would devour every last bit of them

How i wish money wasn't valued so much
And love grew on trees not far from reach

How i wish everyone lived according to their dreams
And they had the courage of praying for their sins

How i wish we all found light in our failures
And all our problems started to hail us

How i wish we were citizens of one country
How i wish my wishes would come true
