I Wish
By dottie
I wish- I had all those days back when you were little and sweet. I hold you here in my gray old head my heart most nearly breaks. For there you stand all done and all a person all your own. I wish- I had all those days back when you used your words so fancifully. I would have paid more attention, I would have spent more time, I would have gone on the circus ride one more time one more time one more time. Now there's war a looming and economy not booming. And there you stand all done and all a person all your own. I wish I had those days back to hold just to myself, to kiss you more and love you more and do better than I did. But there you stand all done and all a person all your own and here I sit. To wish- I wish - I could do it all again. Written October 15th, 2001 © on Oct 15 2001 11:57 AM PST 0 • 10
