wishes

I wish I could make you smile at me,
That beautiful, intoxicating smile,
That makes me go weak at the knees.

I wish I could make you talk to me,
The revelations of the real you,
The sensitive person no one else sees.

I wish I could make you hold me,
In arms of strength and power,
In safety from my horrid nightmares.

I wish I could make you save me,
Show me the world is charming,
Show me that somebody here cares.

Make you care for me as I care for you.

I wish. I wish. I wish.
But wishes never came true
