Only One Wish

If a genie appeared
with wishes for me three
I know what I would ask for
for you to come to me

To feel your hand in mine
to kiss your wonderful lips
to hear you say you love me
to know that together we fit

We'd be together forever
so happy and fulfilled
our lives complete and wonderous
the perfect life we'd build

No more wishes needed 
only the one really used
Oh genie just this one please
that's all I need to be moved

It is impossible to make someone feel something they don't. You must live your life your own way, if you happen to find someone who shares your values and dreams, love will surely grow. Very well written, Helen.
