Katie Levy Poet I do not know?

I Wish

I wish life wasn't so complicated,
I wish my mother chose me over being intoxicated.
I wish i could change my past,
I wish I could erase my memories so the pain won't always last.
I wish I could forgive my sister,
I wish she would have protected me instead of enjoying it when that man kissed 
her.
I wish I knew my father,
I wish they never told me that he thinks i'm nothing but a bother.
I wish I could repaint my life,
I wish that at the age of ten I didn't try to use that knife.
I wish I never loved that man,
I wish he didn't hit me to prove that he was my man.
I wish I could meet the right one,
I wish I never aborted, what could have been my daughter or son.
I wish I could make people understand,
I wish I never  did the things to hear the word remand.
I wish I wasn't so afraid of myself,
I wish I was strong enough to deal with myself,
and know that i'm not by myself.
I wish I knew me,
I wish without a word or explanation, all my pain, anger and grief, you could see.
