What Ifs Are Stupid

I know it seems stupid but 
I can't let you go
My mind says you won't come back 
But my heart says 
What if... 
What if you come back
What if you still love me
What if this is all just a dream

God I wish this was a dream
But sadly it's not
Im forced to face the truth
The what ifs aren't real
You won't come back 
You don't still love me
This is real fu***** life

I'm so stupid for still 
Looking for you in crowds
Listening for your voice 
Looking to see if you like any of the quotes I like 
You never do
Because you've moved on 
You don't care
Your looking for a new face in the crowd not mine
So why am I looking for yours
Why do I do this to myself
Why do I put these thoughts in my head
Why can't I help but think of the what ifs 
Maybe because I'm stupid
Or maybe it's because I still love you and always will and I still have hope you do too.

The Wish You Can'T Take Back

Wishes you make are not as they seem
As if a genie has granted them
And twisted them not to be
Put in a little to much of this
And not enough of that
Before you know it your wishing back your wish
But you wished back to far
 Because each wish is connected 
So you wish back one 
You wish back all

But it's still not enough
You wish back stuff you didn't even wish on
Until... 
You are in a never ending black hole
You think no one can save you
So you make one more wish 
The worst of all
You wish
 Non of this would have never happened 
But you've forgotten that wishes get twisted and turned around
So instead of your wish helping...
It was your last wish of all
