A WISH

All I ever wanted

was for someone to respond

to my love.

All I ever wanted was for

someone who would be able

to accept it,

without calling it too much

too intense, or too this or that...

All I ever wanted was for someone

who could handle my love the way it is.

All I ever wanted was for someone

I could give myself over to completely.

All I ever wanted was... this.

How long have I lived in belief

there's something wrong with me.

That I have to repair myself

in order to be able to love

in order to be loved...

How many broken hearts left behind,

how many scars on my own?

How many lost dreams,

idealized false princes...?

Just so that you could come along...

Love works in mysterious ways!
