MY WISH

MY WISH

It's been 10 years

since I saw you.

The pain hasn't faded

from the day I rue.

If I could go back

and rewrite the past,

I would change it

so you were never the hero.

No glory, no fame,

No adventures, no name.

You would hate me for

doing so,

But the grief of losing you

Is greater than the pain

of you hating me.

You would miss the days of old,

The days of long past,

The days that have changed,

But we would have been happy,

Together for the rest of our days.

It would have been great,

Full of happiness and laughter,

Full of beauty and magic,

An adventure in its own right.

So it is such a shame

That I was never a writer.
