I Wish

I wish I could repeat the past, And stop the hurt that you endured— The pain that stole your happiness, And left you empty and alone I wish my hands could heal your scars, And wipe away your darkest years— Replacing them with warmth and love, And turning all your tears to joy I wish could have stayed with you, To guard your heart against the world; To save your soul from sorrow’s stain, And fill your days with trust and love.
