I wish I could watch you sleeping right now
The world embracing you in its beauty
The stillness your only blanket
I wish I could be near you to hear your dreams
The wind carrying your heartbeat to my ears
The moment held in my eyes would be so beautiful
I wish I wasn’t so alone at the same time as you
The sky might come folding itself down around me
The world might have just stopped if I held my breath
Sometimes wishes are not real and maybe I live on a whim
The feelings would still be pure if my eyes were on you
The whole universe might stop spinning just to gaze at you
I could sit in a corner and hold my wish in my hands
The meanings of tonight could be a reality in my memory
These tears would have never penned this poem I’m writing
I still want to wish…even as I realize that wishes don’t bring you to me
The night clouds my vision raining its longing through my veins
The love inside me just melted for a moment when I smiled about you, again
you are so close despite the miles
your eyes, your smile, your voice
distances that I would like to change
are just ok, because we haven't any choice
