I wish I could

by Elise

I wish I could fly
Over the sea and the ocean.
Or in the the beautiful sky
To finally reach heaven.

I wish I could run
The mountains and the plains
Maybe reach the sun
And forget all the pains.

I wish I could smile
All day long
And forget for a while
Everything that is wrong.

I wish I could erase the tears
Everyone has shed
Erase all the fears
People have in their head.

I wish I could stop the “whys”
I wish I could stop the tears
People have in their eyes
For so many years.

I wish I could stop crying
I wish I could see you
But that’s another thing
I’m not able to do.
