I Wish

I wish I could be happy
With a smile on my face
With a laughter that’s not fake
I wish I could be home
With a roof over my head
With parents who are there
I wish I could live my life
With things that I see are right
Without people who want to fight
I wish my tears would not fall
With no pain mixed in
With no sadness at all
I wish my dream would come true
Because then 
I could be with you.
End
