Oh, How I Wish

Oh, how I wish.
If one was granted
a wish everyday,
one would always
have something to wish for.

Thinking of someone
that I wish I'd never hurt,
how it pierces my heart
to see the heavy thunder storm
and rain drops on her roof.
It has hurt her so badly
I wish I could take it away.
Oh, how I wish.

A wish is the greatest thing
one can ask,
it brings a smile,
it brings memories,
it brings joy,
it brings emotion.

The wow in wishes is when
you finally realize
it's your turn.

Knowing and believing
that wishes do come through
sometimes makes one
want to do it wherever,
whenever and all the time.
Oh, how I wish.
