I wish I could reach out
And be all that you want
But I don't have it in me
I wish I could scream your name
And caress your hair
But I have this fear of
losing myself
I wish I could capture
Your slow smile
And put it in my pocket
To take out and hold
When I'm lonely
I wish I could hear
Your voice
And you could hear mine
Without the unintended tension
I wish you could push me
On a tire swing
And I'd giggle
While you tickled my feet
I wish I could sing to you
And you would hear
The fire in my voice
And you'd know what's inside
I wish we could sit under a tree
And pour out our souls
And cleanse them with
The sunshine
I wish you could
Stroke my face
And kiss my eyes
And tell me why you love me
I wish you could see
What I am...
Who I am...
How I really feel
When your beside me
