WISH

I wish, I wish, maybe I dream
sometimes, but all I wish is to be with
you, to wrap my arms around you, to hold you
close and feel your heartbeat.
If I could read your thoughts by just looking
at you, I would look at you forever.
I wish I could feel your hands in my hair,
your breath on my cheek.
I wish I could heal your wound
that has gone so deep.
